This 2004 Renault has 24 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 10,283 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, with a significant drop in usage followed by a large jump, raising serious integrity concerns.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS suspension failure recorded on 2025-05-30 (72,032 mi) — immediate safety risk.
  • Mileage trajectory is highly suspicious: 18 mi/yr (Jan 2004–Aug 2021), then 11,382 mi/yr (Aug 2021–Jun 2022).
  • 4 test failures in 10 MOT records, with 6 major failures and 22-year-old vehicle age.
  • Recurring major failures in lights (6 times

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-06-19, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring failures on the same critical system (e.g., brakes, suspension) in the last 3 years.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
