2005 Renault Grand Scenic 1.6L Petrol · MF05 PXC

The most recent MOT on 9 February 2022 was a PASS at 73,109 miles, with no defects recorded. Two earlier failures (April 2019 and February 2021) also showed no recorded defects, suggesting the failures were likely test‑related rather than indicative of a persistent fault. Overall the MOT record shows a stable pattern – occasional failures but no recurring safety or repair items have been flagged, and the vehicle has passed its last three tests. At 73,109 miles for a 21‑year‑old Renault Grand Scenic the mileage is low – roughly 3,500 miles a year. This could mean the car has seen light use, which may reduce wear on consumables, but it could also indicate long periods of inactivity, which can lead to rust or seal deterioration. The mileage signal is therefore ambiguous. Before buying, inspect the car for any signs of rust, especially around the wheel arches and undercarriage. Check the suspension and brakes for wear, look for oil or coolant leaks, verify that the service history matches the low mileage, and take a thorough test‑drive to listen for unusual noises or handling issues. Confirm that any past MOT failures were remedied and that the vehicle is currently road‑legal.
