2005 Renault Megane 1.6L Petrol · CT55 AZV

The Renault Megane presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent MOT test on 20 August 2024 at 84,353 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing clean passes in 2022, 2023, and the final 2024 attempt, with no recurring mechanical or structural advisories flagged by testers at any stage. Recorded mileage sits at 84,353 against a 2005 build, an average of roughly 4,017 miles per year. The car covered only 2,278 miles between the August 2022 test at 79,463 miles and the August 2023 pass at 81,075 miles, then added just 3,278 miles to the August 2024 tests. Low annual use of this nature often indicates prolonged standing periods, which can allow corrosion to develop on brake discs, suspension components, and underbody structure even where the MOT shows a clear sheet. The two failed tests on 30 July 2024 and 16 August 2024 at 84,353 and 84,355 miles carry no recorded defects, implying administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults, with the subsequent pass confirming the vehicle met requirements. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, brake calipers, and exhaust system for hidden corrosion or binding, as the sparse record offers no visibility of wear on these items. Given the car's age and low mileage, check tyre sidewall condition and flat spots from standing, along with coolant and brake fluid degradation. The clean MOT lineage suggests previous owners kept basic statutory testing in order, but the absence of advisories means consumable and structural condition remains unverified by the official record.
