Buying a used Renault Twingo for London: what the MOT data shows
The Renault Twingos in this data were first registered between 2007 and 2019. 2015 was the most common year, with 5,158 tests (20% of the total), and half were registered in 2012 or later.
Almost every Twingo in the data is from a year likely to comply, so age and condition matter more than ULEZ when choosing one. The newest (2019) passed first time 84% of the time at 16,901 miles on average, and the oldest (2007) passed 52% at 83,580 miles.
Whichever year you choose, check the Twingo's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were suspension: "fractured or broken" (6.4% of tests) and "ball joint excessively worn" (4.8%); lights and electrics: "not working" (5.9%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 16.5% of tests.
Overall, 64% of Twingos passed first time, noticeably below the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 56,262 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
