This 2014 Renault has 17 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 16,341 miles. The recurring electrical faults and high-risk head gasket/fuel pump issues from community knowledge make this a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,501 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
Things to check
- Dangerous Offside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit (Jan 2019) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring electrical faults (community report) — high risk for a 2014 Renault 5 E-Tech.
- Recurring head gasket and fuel pump issues (community report) — high risk for a 2014 Renault 5 E-Tech.
- Six test failures and one dangerous defect in last 3 years (Oct 2024) — poor maintenance history.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no anomalies — no odometer fraud detected.
- Valid MOT until October 2026 — no immediate retesting required.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — strong safety features for its age.
