This 2018 Renault has 4 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 15,389 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the pattern of neglect and low usage warrants careful consideration.
The vehicle shows only 15,389 miles over 8 years, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, raising odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- Dangerous Offside Front Tyre failure on 2023-02-21 indicates severe neglect.
- Mileage of 15,389 miles over 8 years is significantly below UK average, suggesting odometer fraud.
- Recurring tyre advisories (2021, 2023) and brake disc/pad advisories (2023) point to systemic maintenance issues.
- The 2023-02-21 MOT failure for a dangerous tyre defect, despite a same-day retest PASS, is a major red flag.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a current, valid MOT certificate, which is a positive for immediate roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 provides a strong safety foundation for this model.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures demonstrate a responsive owner.
