2016 Renault ZOE Electric · WJ16 AAO

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection in October 2025 at 31,467 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This flawless record suggests the vehicle has remained well-maintained and avoided the mechanical or structural failures that typically trigger MOT recalls as cars age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,147 miles per year. Between June 2021 and October 2025, the car covered 15,046 miles, reflecting a very light usage pattern. The intervals between tests are consistent, with annual increments of roughly 3,500 to 4,700 miles, suggesting predictable driving habits rather than erratic use. While low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushes, it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber parts and brake components due to prolonged inactivity. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should physically inspect specific components often affected by low-mileage operation. Brake discs and calipers are prone to corrosion and seizing when a vehicle is not used frequently, so a check for surface pitting or uneven wear is necessary. The tyres should also be examined for sidewall cracking, as rubber compounds can dry out over a decade regardless of tread depth. Additionally, the structural integrity of the chassis should be verified for surface corrosion, although the lack of previous rust advisories suggests the vehicle has remained in a dry environment.
