AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Renault has 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 35,845 miles. The vehicle's low mileage for its age, combined with a 2010 headlamp failure and a 2019 head gasket warning, raises significant reliability concerns.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 6,996 miles/year, but a 2019 head gasket warning and a 2010 headlamp failure are serious red flags for a 19-year-old car.
Things to check
- Recurring brake advisories across 8 tests (Mar 2019, Mar 2020, Mar 2021, Mar 2022, Mar 2023) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (Mar 2019, Mar 2020, Mar 2021, Mar 2022, Mar 2023) show consistent neglect.
- 2010-03-27 FAILED for Offside Front Headlamp aim too low, a safety-critical defect.
- 2019-03-22 ADVISORY for Offside Rear Brake pad(s) wearing thin, a recurring issue.
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- Recent clean MOT pass on 2023-03-22, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural corrosion or recurring suspension failures (beyond advisories).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
