Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a well-do
Verify the battery ownership status and health, as 2019 Zoes can vary between battery-inclusive and battery-lease arrangements. Ensure there is a clear record of the repairs made following the September 2023 MOT failure, specifically the suspension arm and brake work. Check for a consistent service history, focusing on cabin filter replacements and brake fluid checks.
As an electric vehicle, this Zoe offers significantly lower fuel costs compared to internal combustion engines, particularly if charged on a home overnight tariff. It benefits from zero VED (road tax) and typically sits in a lower insurance group, making it an economical choice for urban commuting.
Inspect the suspension and braking systems carefully; the 2023 MOT failure specifically highlighted a worn nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint and a binding offside rear service brake. Ensure these components are operating smoothly without noise or resistance. Additionally, check the current condition of all tyres to ensure they are not perishing or cracking, as this was a primary reason for the 2023 failure.
This white 2019 Renault Zoe has recorded 47,873 miles, which is slightly above the model average. While it failed its MOT in September 2023 due to tyre, suspension, and brake issues, it has since passed its 2024 and 2025 tests with no defects recorded.
The Renault Zoe maintains a respectable average MOT pass rate of 78.3%, with the most common failures typically involving tyres and suspension components.

AI Analysis
Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: RENAULT ZOE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Battery Charger Box (BCB) Failure(Serious)
The BCB is responsible for managing AC charging. It is a common failure point, often caused by internal component failure or moisture ingress. A failed BCB will prevent the car from charging on AC, though DC rapid charging (if fitted) may still work.
- Power Electronic Box (PEB) Failure(Serious)
The PEB (Inverter) converts DC from the battery to AC for the motor. Failure symptoms often start with intermittent power loss or unusual whining noises before total vehicle immobilisation.
- 12V battery electrical chaos(Serious)
A weak 12V battery is the root of most Zoe "breakdowns". It can cause "Check Electrical System" messages, charging failures, and total vehicle immobilisation.
- Suspension (Drop links and ball joints) wear(Moderate)
Due to the heavy battery pack, the Zoe’s front suspension components, particularly drop links and ball joints, wear faster than on a standard Clio.
- Charging port and flap failure(Moderate)
The locking pin for the Type 2 cable can fail, or the flap motor can seize, preventing the car from charging or releasing the cable.
