2012 Renault G Scenic D-QUE TT Energy Dciss 1.5L Diesel · LR62 PKK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, as the most recent MOT test on 11 August 2023 at 54,471 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures preceding passes in both 2022 and 2023, the issues were successfully rectified to pass testing. This suggests the owner is proactive in addressing identified faults rather than allowing them to trend into serious mechanical degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,900 miles per year. Between the 44,823 miles in August 2021 and the 54,471 miles in August 2023, the car covered only 9,648 miles. This consistent low usage indicates light travel, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-mileage vehicles often suffer from degradation of rubber-based components such as suspension bushes and tyres due to dry rot rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the age-related components that the MOT record does not fully capture. The lack of advisories on corrosion or leaks suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but the low mileage warrants a check for brake caliper seizing or perished seals from periods of disuse. Given the recurring failures prior to passes, the buyer should verify that the specific items repaired in those years have held up over time and are not showing signs of premature failure.
