This 2003 Renault has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 31,580 miles. The car is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 5,749 miles per year, with a suspiciously low 314 miles recorded between July 2012 and July 2013, indicating potential long periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • MOT Status: Vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT certificate.
  • Head Gasket Failure: Community-reported 'head gasket' fault — a known weakness for this model.

Working in its favour

  • No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Single minor failure in 2012 was immediately rectified.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases since 2006, despite low overall numbers.
