2016 Renault Megane 1.2L Petrol · PJ66 ADU

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 12th December 2025 at 51,584 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle was roadworthy at the time of inspection. However, the previous test on 10th December 2025 at 51,547 miles failed due to a serious fluid leak in the offside rear shock absorber, suggesting ongoing issues with the suspension system. The trend is mixed, with some tests passing and others failing, particularly for suspension and brake components. The recurring faults in the suspension system, such as the shock absorber leak, indicate a need for closer monitoring of this area. The vehicle's mileage pattern shows a relatively low average of approximately 5,158 miles per year, which could reflect lighter use or long periods of inactivity. The most recent test at 51,584 miles was conducted just 37 days after the previous test at 51,547 miles, suggesting a possible period of heavy use or a need for more frequent maintenance checks. The data is sparse between 2020 and 2021, with only two tests conducted, but the overall trend shows a consistent need for attention to suspension and brake components. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly the rear shock absorber, for any signs of leaks or damage. The recurring issues with brake pads wearing thin and tyres failing tread depth checks highlight the importance of regular brake and tyre maintenance. Additionally, the wiper blades have been flagged as defective in multiple tests, indicating a need for regular inspection and replacement as necessary. Structural integrity should also be assessed for any signs of corrosion or rust, especially given the vehicle's age.
