Our Verdict
A low-mileage example of the 1.33L petro
The most critical point for negotiation or inspection is the tyre condition. The MOT history shows a pattern of issues with the offside front tyre, which was flagged for a cut in 2024, cracking in 2025, and being worn close to the legal limit in 2026. Ensure that a fresh set of tyres has been fitted before purchase to resolve these recurring advisories.
Given the very low mileage, you should scrutinize the service history to ensure oil and filter changes were carried out based on time intervals rather than just mileage. Low-usage vehicles can still suffer from degraded fluids or perished rubber components if they have spent long periods stationary.
The 1330cc petrol engine offers a balance of efficiency and performance suitable for mixed driving. Annual costs will be comprised of the standard VED tax band for a 2018 petrol vehicle and a mid-range insurance group typical for the Megane model.
Maintenance costs should remain moderate, though buyers should budget for the replacement of the tyres noted in the MOT history. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the offside front and rear tyres. The MOT history specifically identifies cuts, cracking, and wear on the offside, which may suggest alignment issues or specific wear patterns that need addressing.
While this specific vehicle has passed its tests, you should check the headlamps, coil springs, and brake pipes. These are the top three failure reasons for the Megane across the 139,797 vehicles analysed in the aggregate data, making them key weak points to verify during a pre-purchase inspection.
This silver 2018 Renault Megane has covered just 29,013 miles as of its March 2026 MOT, which is significantly lower than the model average. It has a consistent record of MOT passes since 2022, though the last three tests have noted advisories regarding the condition of the tyres. The vehicle presents as a low-use example of this specific petrol variant.
The Renault Megane has an average MOT pass rate of 71.7% based on data from 139,797 vehicles.
