1989 Renault R21 2.0L Petrol · F860 TAD

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, dated 16 May 2025 at 155 072 miles, recorded a pass with no defects. That test is now over a year old, meaning the car does not hold a current MOT and is not legally roadworthy. The history shows a consistent pass streak since April 2022, indicating a stable maintenance pattern with no emerging faults. Mileage accumulation has been modest. Between April 2022 (152 643 miles) and May 2025 (155 072 miles) the car added just 2 429 miles over roughly three years, averaging around 800 miles per year. The increase from March 2024 (153 731 miles) to May 2025 (155 072 miles) was 1 341 miles in fourteen months, suggesting low annual usage. The data is sparse beyond the four entries, but the trend points to light wear. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should inspect the chassis and body for rust, particularly around wheel arches and sill panels. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for cracking or deterioration. Brake discs and calipers need a visual check for uneven wear or corrosion, and the exhaust system should be inspected for rust holes. Tyre tread depth and condition are critical after three decades of service, as is the condition of steering rack bushings and any signs of oil or coolant leaks. Overall, the vehicle presents a mechanically sound platform with a low‑mileage history, but the absence of recent testing means a thorough pre‑purchase inspection is essential to confirm structural integrity and to identify any hidden age‑related wear that the MOT may have missed.
