AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2013 Renault has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 36,431 miles. However, a significant 1 MOT failure and 15 recurring advisories on critical wear items like suspension, tyres, and brakes warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,291 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • 2017-03-28 FAILED MOT with no defect details, indicating a past safety-critical issue.
  • Recurring suspension arm advisories across 5 separate tests (2017, 2018, 2019, 2023, 2025) suggest chronic neglect.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 5 separate tests (2017, 2018, 2019, 2023, 2025) and a 2024 nail in tyre indicate persistent wear.
  • Recurring brake advisories (Nov 2023) and a 2024 exhaust advisory point to multiple upcoming maintenance needs.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-04, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,291 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
