1987 RENAULT ESPACE2.0L PETROL

The roadworthiness of this vehicle cannot be verified due to a complete lack of contemporary data. The last recorded MOT test took place on 15 June 2006 at 102,359 miles, where it passed with no recorded defects. Because no tests are documented for the following twenty years, it is impossible to establish a stable maintenance trend or determine if the vehicle remains in a road-legal condition today. The recorded mileage of 102,359 miles over 39 years represents an average usage of approximately 2,625 miles per year. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has spent long periods stationary, which often presents a different set of mechanical risks than high-mileage wear. Standing vehicles frequently suffer from the degradation of rubber components, seized brake seals, and internal corrosion within the fuel system, none of which are captured by a low odometer reading alone. A physical inspection must prioritize the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as Renault Espace models from this era are historically prone to significant corrosion over decades of inactivity. The buyer should specifically check for perished suspension bushes, perished tyres for sidewall cracking, and inspect the brake lines for internal pitting. Given the two-decade gap in official testing, a comprehensive mechanical survey of the drivetrain and fluid integrity is mandatory before any purchase can be considered.
