AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Renault has 26 MOT tests on record with a 58% pass rate and 16,424 miles. While mileage is low, the pattern of issues suggests potential underlying neglect or structural weaknesses.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,608 miles/year, averaging only 52,744 miles in 18 years, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in lights (3 times) and suspension (1 time) indicate systemic neglect.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,608 mi/yr) for an 18-year-old vehicle suggests minimal use.
- Multiple recurring advisories for tyres and brakes across 12 MOT tests point to chronic wear.
- The 2011-03-10 FAILED MOT with 4 advisories and 2 PRS defects shows severe initial neglect.
Working in its favour
- Current valid MOT until 2026-07-20 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures demonstrate owner responsiveness.
