AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT status following a pass on May 27, 2025, where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history shows intermittent failures in the previous two years. While the failures in May 2023 and May 2025 indicate specific issues required immediate rectification to pass, the subsequent pass without advisories suggests that the vehicle met the minimum roadworthiness requirements at its most recent inspection. At a recorded mileage of 90,866 miles, this 17-year-old Renault has averaged approximately 5,345 miles per year. This is significantly lower than the national average for its age, which often suggests infrequent use or long periods of stationary. The records show a consistent testing interval with entries in May 2023, May 2024, and May 2025, indicating that the vehicle has remained in annual testing despite the low mileage accumulation between these dates. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the rubber components and fluids, as low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from dry rot or perished seals rather than mechanical wear. Given the age of the car, particular attention is required regarding structural corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points which are common failure areas for this model. Because the MOT record does not specify the reasons for the previous failures, a thorough check of the braking system and exhaust integrity is necessary to ensure no recurring issues are resurfacing. Buying score: 68 Risk level: Low.
