2007 Renault Megane 1.6L Petrol · AE 111

The 2026‑06‑25 MOT at 76,055 miles confirms the 2007 Renault Mégane remains roadworthy, though the test recorded a defect in the near‑side front track‑rod end ball joint (2.1.3(b)(i)). No other failures were noted, indicating that the vehicle’s overall mechanical condition has been stable since the previous test in June 2025, when the mileage was 74,924 miles and no defects were logged. Over the past 19 years the car has accumulated roughly 76,000 miles, averaging just over 4,000 miles per year, a figure that is low for its age and suggests light usage or extended periods of inactivity. The annual MOT entries from 2012 through 2026 show a steady, incremental increase without any abrupt mileage jumps, and the record is free of missing years, indicating consistent documentation and regular testing. A buyer should therefore prioritize a physical inspection of the front suspension geometry, specifically the play in the track‑rod end ball joint, and examine the condition of the rear brake discs, which were noted as worn in 2024 at 73,535 miles. Particular attention is also warranted on the front oil leak (8.4.1(a)(i)) and the undertray fitment, while the rear tyres, perished in the 2016 test, should be replaced and the surrounding wheel arches checked for corrosion or structural damage. Overall, the vehicle exhibits a pattern of diligent, low‑mileage upkeep with only a single recent advisory defect, implying that previous owners have maintained the car responsibly; however, the identified suspension play and brake wear constitute the primary areas requiring verification before purchase.
