2018 Renault ZOE Electric · BV68 AEA

The Renault Zoe presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 9 September 2025 at 18,835 miles which recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 2021 through 2025 returned a pass with no advisories logged against suspension bushes, brake discs, steering, or structural integrity. The vehicle has cleared each inspection cleanly for four consecutive years. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for an eight-year-old car. The 2021 test at 27,571 miles shows the prior keeper covered roughly 16,000 miles in the first three years, yet the 2022 reading of 11,388 miles reveals a sharp drop that suggests the vehicle then stood idle or saw only occasional short trips. From September 2022 to September 2025 the odometer advanced just 7,447 miles, averaging under 2,500 miles per year. Such low use over a sustained period often masks degraded rubber components and flat-spotted tyres that static storage induces. A clean MOT ledger means no tester ever flagged binding calipers, corroded subframes, or worn coil springs on this Zoe. That said, the absence of advisories does not certify component health beyond the test bay. The buyer should still confirm in person that the 12-volt auxiliary battery and traction battery cooling system remain sound, as EVs of this age can suffer latent electrical faults the MOT does not assess. Given the long stationary intervals implied by the mileage, inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking from age rather than wear, and check the brake discs for surface rust pitting after disuse. The previous owners clearly kept the car to a light-use schedule with no skipped tests, which points to reasonable if minimal upkeep rather than neglect.
