2002 Renault Megane 1.9L Diesel · EB02 AJB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test on 2 December 2025 at 93,050 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just two weeks prior on 18 November 2025 at 92,987 miles. The lack of recorded defects on that specific failure report suggests an administrative technicality or a minor item that was rectified immediately, as the subsequent pass showed no evidence of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,877 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2024, the car covered only 4,059 miles, indicating a usage rate of less than 2,100 miles annually. This low usage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and brake assemblies. However, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of perishables such as rubber-based suspension bushes and perished seals, which occur despite the low odometer reading. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and the points where corrosion typically accumulates, given the vehicle's age and low mileage. Inspect the sills and suspension mounting points for structural rust that the MOT might miss until it becomes significant. Check the tyres for cracking or sidewall rot, as age affects rubber compound more than tread depth. While the MOT history is clean, the low mileage necessitates a thorough check of fluid freshness and brake lines that have not been subjected to frequent operational use.
