2021 Renault ZOE Iconic Rapid Charge EV 50 Electric · AF71 OFT

The Renault Zoe presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 2 September 2025 at 46,391 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and clean across the available history. A failed entry on the same date at identical mileage shows no listed defects, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault with the vehicle itself, and the subsequent pass confirms the car left the test station in a compliant state. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a five-year-old car. The record shows 35,463 miles on 29 August 2024 rising to 46,391 miles by 2 September 2025, an annual gain of roughly 10,928 miles. This is slightly above the implied average of 9,278 but within normal private-use bounds. The sparse two-year test span offers limited visibility, though both tests returned clear results with no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension, or corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable and structural items the MOT does not deeply probe. Check brake disc wear, suspension bushes, and coil spring condition, as these can degrade without triggering an advisory at test. Examine the high-voltage battery housing and underbody for impact damage or corrosion, given the EV layout and the car's mixed-use mileage. The absence of recurring faults or worsening trends is a positive signal of reasonable upkeep by prior keepers. Treat the same-day fail-pass as a paperwork anomaly, not a mechanical concern. Verify service history to confirm battery coolant and brake fluid intervals were met, since the MOT alone does not capture such maintenance.
