2011 Renault Megane 1.4L Petrol · CV61 FCP

The Renault Megane presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 28 October 2025 at 118,401 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The only irregularity is administrative: the vehicle failed and passed on the same date in both October 2024 and October 2025 with no defects listed, indicating clerical or processing errors at the test centre rather than genuine mechanical concerns. Mileage progression is consistent with typical use for a 2011 vehicle. The record shows 86,205 miles at the October 2023 test, rising to 99,173 miles by October 2024 and 118,401 miles by October 2025. That equates to roughly 12,900 miles per year across the recorded period, above the lifetime average of 7,893 but not excessive for a family hatchback. No gaps exist between tests; the car was presented annually within the correct window each time. The clean MOT history gives no cause to suspect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion issues at the tested mileages. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody condition and brake component wear, as the DVSA record offers no advisory detail to confirm consumable status. The same-day fail-pass entries in 2024 and 2025 warrant a check of the V5C and test certificate to confirm no suppressed defect data. Given the sparse but clean record, previous ownership appears to have maintained test compliance without neglected presentations. The absence of recurring advisories suggests basic upkeep was not skipped, though the lack of granular defect notes means in-person verification of tyre tread depth and exhaust emissions remains prudent before purchase.
