2006 Renault Modus 1.4L Petrol · CK56 XWN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by five consecutive MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 12 July 2025 at 76,615 miles returned no recorded defects or advisories. This consistency suggests the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum DVSA safety requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural corrosion-related issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old Modus, averaging approximately 3,831 miles per year. Between August 2021 and July 2025, the car covered just 6,827 miles, maintaining a consistent rate of accumulation of roughly 1,700 miles annually. This low usage typically implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain, engine, and braking system. However, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown which an MOT test may not fully capture. Despite the clean digital history, a physical inspection must focus on components susceptible to age rather than mileage-based wear. A buyer should check for signs of perished suspension bushes, split hoses, and dry tyres, as these degrade over time regardless of miles driven. Given the vehicle's age, a close examination of the structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure that hidden rust has not developed between the annual inspection intervals.
