2007 Renault Modus 1.4L Petrol · AF07 GZA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 29 July 2025 at 55,145 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a consistent period of passes between 2022 and 2023, suggesting that the mechanical condition has been maintained without significant major failures or recurring structural issues. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,900 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2024, the car covered 12,908 miles, while it added only 4,159 miles in the following year. The brief failure recorded in March 2024 at 50,983 miles, followed immediately by a pass three miles later, suggests a minor, rectifyable fault that was addressed promptly. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components due to lack of use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related perish rather than high-mileage wear. Examine the suspension bushes, shock boots, and tyre sidewalls for cracking, as these become brittle when a vehicle is driven infrequently. Check the braking system for signs of corrosion or seized calipers which frequently occur when cars sit for long periods. Additionally, verify the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches for hidden rust to ensure the low mileage has not masked underlying oxidation issues common in vehicles of this era.
