AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Renault has 18 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 23,702 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of issues suggests significant underlying wear and potential neglect.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 5,166 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 2,891 miles from Sep 2020 to Oct 2021).
Things to check
- Recurring suspension issues: CV boot (2019, 2021) and steering rack (2021) advisories.
- Recurring exhaust system issues: Advisory (2020) escalated to major failure (2021).
- Major failures in critical safety systems: Track rod end (2010), fuel pump (2019), and engine oil (2019).
- Mileage trajectory shows a significant drop in recent years (2,891 miles from Sep 2020 to Oct 2021).
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2022-10-26 (though expired, it was a pass).
- No mileage discrepancies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
