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

This 2016 Renault has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 29,197 miles. However, a dangerous tyre defect in 2024, coupled with recurring suspension advisories and a significant service gap in 2021, warrant careful consideration.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,612 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.

Things to check

  • Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2024-02-18 (test failed) — immediate safety concern.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (e.g., offside front lower ball joint) from 2024-02-18 onwards.
  • Significant service gap: no MOT recorded for 2021, indicating potential unaddressed maintenance.
  • Multiple recurring advisories for brakes and tyres across 2023-2024, suggesting ongoing wear.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-17, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age, averaging 8,612 miles/year.
