2010 Renault Megane 1.5L Diesel · GU10 WCM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on March 13 2026 at 137,350 miles secured a pass following a failure just one week prior. This failure was triggered by an inoperative rear fog lamp switch and a faulty offside front running light. While the vehicle meets the minimum legal requirements, the recurring nature of minor electrical faults suggests that the owner only addresses defects when they directly result in an MOT failure. At 137,350 miles over 16 years, the Megane averages approximately 8,584 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a car of this age. The data shows consistent usage between tests, with roughly 5,000 miles covered between the March 2024 and March 2025 tests, and another 6,270 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This steady mileage indicates the vehicle is used regularly, which generally helps prevent seals drying and components seizing from long periods of standing. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the electrical system, as the repeated failures regarding fog lamps, switches, and running lights indicate potentially intermittent wiring issues or poor bulb replacements. Because the record lacks advisories for mechanical or structural components, a physical inspection is required to check for typical Renault corrosion on the subframe and suspension mounts, which are common failure points on this generation of Marne. Given the age and mileage, the condition of the suspension bushes and the thickness of the brake discs should also be verified to ensure they are not nearing the end of their expected service life.
