2009 Renault Megane 1.9L Diesel · A18 EBF

The Renault Megane presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 6 February 2026 at 99,437 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the three most recent annual tests showing clean passes and no advisories logged. Prior to that, the vehicle suffered two administrative failures on 30 April 2025 and 20 May 2025 at 96,910 and 97,044 miles respectively, both with no defects recorded, indicating paperwork or process issues rather than mechanical faults. At roughly 17 years old the car shows 99,437 miles, an average of about 5,849 miles per year, which is low for its age and suggests light use or periods of standing. The mileage stepped from 90,387 at the 16 May 2024 test to 96,910 by 30 April 2025, a modest 6,523 miles over eleven months, then rose slightly to 97,044 by 20 May 2025 and reached 99,437 by February 2026. The record is sparse and clean, with no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion across the available history. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody condition given the vehicle's age and the likelihood of dormant corrosion unseen by MOT tests. The earlier twin failures with zero defects imply the previous owner neglected administrative renewal rather than routine care, though no mechanical neglect is evidenced in the data. Verify brake disc thickness, coil spring condition, and suspension arm bushes during a physical check, as these consumable items accumulate unseen wear during low-mileage storage.
