2011 Renault Wind 1.1L Petrol · FN11 XCU

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT on 8 November 2024 at 86,298 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record reveals a recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by rapid passes. In both 2023 and 2024, the car failed its initial test only days before passing upon retest. This suggests the previous owners only addressed specific mechanical or safety faults when prompted by a test failure rather than following a proactive preventative maintenance schedule. At 86,298 miles, this 2011 Renault Wind averaged approximately 5,753 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent low usage, with only 2,861 miles recorded between November 2022 and 2023, and another 2,398 miles between November 2023 and 2024. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components and internal fluid breakdown. A buyer should investigate the specific components that caused the recent failures in November 2023 and 2024, as the provided summary does not detail the exact defect codes. Given the low-mileage-use profile and the 15-year age of the chassis, the vehicle requires a thorough inspection for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe. Particular attention should be paid to the braking system, checking for seized calipers or perished suspension bushes, which are common issues on vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
