2016 Jeep Renegade 1.4L Petrol · YA65 DTZ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes across multiple years. The most recent test conducted on 26 September 2022 at 47,628 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the accumulation of common mechanical failures or structural degradation seen in vehicles of this age and type. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old Jeep, averaging approximately 4,763 miles per annum. A significant gap exists between the January 2019 test at 21,219 miles and the February 2020 test at 35,899 miles, where the vehicle covered over 14,000 miles in just thirteen months. Since 2020, the usage has slowed considerably, with only 3,516 miles recorded over nearly two years. This low mileage suggests light road use but also carries the inherent risk of rubber-based component degradation due to long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is immaculate, a buyer must inspect for specific issues associated with low-mileage vehicles. Prioritize a check of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as rubber can crack and perish over time regardless of low mileage wear. Also examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or seizing, which often occurs when vehicles sit stationary for extended periods. Given the last recorded MOT was over three years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for a test, and a fresh inspection is mandatory to ensure no new structural corrosion or mechanical leaks have developed since the 2022 entry.
