2007 Renault Megane 2.0L Petrol · FD57 AFU

The Renault Megane presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 13 June 2025 at 108,288 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The June 2025 pass came ten days after a failure on 3 June 2025 at the same mileage, though the tester logged no defects on either entry. A near-identical pattern occurred in April 2024, when the car failed on 29 April at 104,236 miles and passed on 1 May at 104,238 miles with no defects recorded. These paired fail-pass entries with zero listed faults suggest administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical defects, and the vehicle has carried no advisories or recorded wear since the April 2023 pass at 100,205 miles. The odometer shows 108,288 miles against a 2007 build, an average of roughly 5,700 miles per year. The mileage climbed from 100,205 in April 2023 to 104,238 by April 2024, then to 108,288 by June 2025, reflecting light annual use with no abrupt accumulation. The two-mile gap between the April 2024 fail and pass indicates the car was driven minimally between tests. Low mileage for age can mask deterioration from standing, yet the clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or corrosion across the three-year span. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's nineteen years. The MOT data flags no structural integrity concerns, exhaust emissions failures, or binding calipers, but long idle periods between short journeys promote seized linkages and surface corrosion invisible to the tester. Verify the April and June fail-pass pairs with the DVSA to confirm no omitted defect lines exist on the certificate. Prior owners kept the Megane to a low annual distance and secured four passes in three years, implying cautious storage rather than hard use. The repeated zero-defect failures point to clerical anomalies, not skipped upkeep. Inspect underneath for rust and check tyre sidewalls for perishing before purchase.
