2016 Renault ZOE Electric · GU66 AEB

The vehicle currently maintains a clean roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT certificate issued on 20 September 2025 at 39,122 miles showing no recorded defects. This result confirms a stable maintenance trend, as the car has achieved four consecutive clean passes since 2022. The failed test on 18 September 2025, which occurred just two days prior to the successful pass, resulted in no listed defects, suggesting a potential administrative error or a minor rectification that did not require formal documentation. With a total of 39,122 miles over a ten-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 3,900 miles per annum. This low-mileage profile indicates light usage, though it also raises the possibility of the car remaining stationary for extended periods. The consistent, incremental mileage accumulation between the 2022 test at 27,363 miles and the 2025 test shows that the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than left entirely idle, which is generally favourable for the health of the high-voltage battery and electrical systems. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation from age rather than high-mileage wear. Given the low annual usage, inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as light use often prevents the pads from effectively cleaning the disc faces. Check the suspension bushes and rubber gaiters for signs of perishing or cracking due to age-related hardening. While the MOT history is exemplary, a visual check of the tyres for sidewall cracking is recommended, as the rubber may have reached the end of its functional life despite retaining sufficient tread depth.
