2008 Renault Twingo 1.1L Petrol · NC08 ADU

The vehicle passed the June 20 2025 MOT at 124,607 miles, confirming current roadworthiness, yet the June 9 2025 failure revealed insecure and fractured coil springs, indicating that recent repairs have addressed major suspension defects while oil leaks and brake wear remain present. The maintenance trend therefore moves from a series of failures in 2022‑2024 toward a stabilized condition after the latest pass, though recurring wear items persist. Mileage has risen from 110,505 miles in June 2022 to 124,607 miles by June 2025, a gain of 14,102 miles over three years, or roughly 4,700 miles per year, suggesting accelerated usage compared with the earlier 2018‑2022 period when the increase was about 10,700 miles over four years. No substantial gaps appear in the record, but the recent rapid mileage accumulation points to heightened wear on consumables and mechanical components. A buyer should focus on the suspension system, inspecting coil springs, mounting brackets and bush condition for any signs of fracture or looseness, and verify that the offside rear spring and strut top bush are sound. Brake inspection must include disc thickness, pitting and pad wear, as the history shows repeated scoring and thinning. Tyre condition, especially edge wear, should be assessed, along with the source of the ongoing oil leak and any structural rust on the sump or suspension mounts.
