Our Verdict
This Renault Megane is a sensible choice for those seeking a high-mileage diesel with a recent clean MOT record. While the mileage is high, the lack of defects in the most recent test is a positive indicator.
Given the high mileage of 117,520 miles, you should prioritise checking the service history for evidence of timing belt changes and fuel system maintenance, which are critical for this 1461cc diesel engine. While the recent MOTs show no defects, the vehicle has had failures in both 2024 and 2025, though the specific reasons for these failures were not recorded in the data provided.
Negotiate based on the mileage; although the car has passed its tests, it has been used much more heavily than the average Megane. Look for any signs of wear in the interior and ensure the turbocharger and clutch operate smoothly, as these are common high-mileage considerations for this model.
The 1.5L diesel engine is generally known for its fuel efficiency, making it suitable for long-distance commuting. You should check the specific tax band and insurance group for this 2010 registration, as these can vary depending on the exact trim level.
Maintenance costs for a Megane of this age typically involve regular servicing and potential replacements of wear-and-tear items like brakes and tyres. Expect an estimated annual running cost to reflect the higher-than-average mileage driven by this specific vehicle.
Pay close attention to the lighting and suspension components. While this specific vehicle's recent MOTs recorded no defects, aggregate data for this model shows that headlamps, coil springs, and brake pipes are the most common failure points.
Because the 2024 and 2025 MOTs both involved a failure followed by a pass, it is worth asking the seller for the specific details of what required repair to ensure it was not a recurring issue. Additionally, inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion, especially around the brake lines mentioned in the model's failure trends.
This 2010 black Renault Megane 1.5 dCi has covered 117,520 miles since its first registration in July 2010. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing tests, with the most recent result in August 2025 recording no defects. Compared to the model average of 6,657 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven significantly more than the typical example.
Aggregate data for Renault Meganes shows a 71.8% average MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to headlamps, coil springs, and brake pipes.
