AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Renault has 25 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 6,056 miles. The vehicle's low mileage and valid MOT are overshadowed by significant safety and maintenance concerns.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage (5,706 miles/yr), with a significant spike in usage between Jan 2022 (59,477 mi) and Aug 2023 (76,569 mi), and a subsequent drop to Aug 2025 (94,891 mi).
Things to check
- Four DANGEROUS defects recorded across 2012 and 2024 MOTs (brakes, lights).
- Recurring brake disc wear (2012, 2023, 2024) and pad wear (2023, 2024) indicate systemic neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories (2018, 2022, 2025) and headlamp issues (2022, 2025) show a pattern of deferred maintenance.
- A 2021 service gap in MOT history is a significant concern for a 17-year-old vehicle.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage suggests a well-maintained private vehicle.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
