2012 Renault Laguna 2.0L Diesel · RO11 SEC

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on August 6 2025 with 237,892 miles and no defects recorded. This result indicates a stable maintenance trend following a period of instability in mid-2024. While the car suffered two consecutive failures in June 2024, the subsequent pass and the clean sheet from the following year suggest that the current owner addressed the necessary repairs to bring the vehicle back to a legal standard. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a 14-year-old Renault, averaging approximately 17,000 miles per year. Between the May 2023 test at 222,985 miles and the June 2024 test at 229,109 miles, the car covered 6,124 miles in just over thirteen months. However, usage accelerated significantly to 8,783 miles covered between the June 2024 and August 2025 tests. This consistent high mileage puts significant strain on the drivetrain, suspension geometry, and braking system, often leading to accelerated wear on rubber-based components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and subframe, as high-mileage Laguna models frequently suffer from perished bushes and control arm corrosion. Given the two failures in 2024, it is vital to check for signs of play in the steering rack or binding in brake calipers that may have been masked but not fully rectified. Focus attention on the condition of the exhaust system and the structural integrity of the chassis, as the high annual mileage suggests these components are nearing the end of their functional life cycles.
