2022 Renault Arkana Techno E-Tech HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · BL72 SOC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 8 December 2025 at 23,836 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a recent failure on that same day due to critical tyre safety issues. While the vehicle passed the immediate retest, the initial failure for an offside front tyre with exposed cords indicates that the previous owner neglected basic consumable safety checks until the formal inspection deadline. At a recorded mileage of 23,836 miles over four years, the Arkana has averaged approximately 6,000 miles per year. This low annual usage typically suggests less mechanical strain on the hybrid drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage vehicles of similar age. The data is sparse given the vehicle's young age, but the lack of structural defects or mechanical failures in the record suggests the chassis and primary assemblies remain sound despite the tyre-related failure. A buyer must personally inspect the front suspension and alignment to address the uneven wear noted in the 2025 advisory. The nearside front tyre was worn on the edge, which often points to incorrect tracking, worn wishbone arms, or failing bushings. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should also be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, as vehicles that have sat for long periods between uses can develop seized calipers or uneven pad wear.
