Renault Megane

What 1,207 MOT tests in 2025 say about buying one used — and, just as important, what they cannot tell you.

Our verdict
Be careful

Judged against every other electric car of the same age — at 3 years old — this one passes at 83.3% against 87.2% for the electric fleet. That is 3.9 points worse with age already accounted for, so budget for the first test rather than assuming it will sail through. And whatever the MOT record says, it tells you nothing about the battery — no record does. Only a physical test measures that.

Battery and warranty

Nothing here until it is sourced

Battery warranty terms per model year — years, mileage cap, capacity-retention threshold, and whether it transfers to a second owner — have to be traced to the manufacturer’s own published documentation, row by row, and dated. That table has not been built.

What we will never do

We will not sell you a battery state-of-health figure we have not measured. Ours would be a guess, so we are not selling it. Where a physical test is worth its roughly £100, we will say so plainly.

What gets flagged

Advisory and failure items for this model are not published yet. The item-level data needs the DVSA test-item files joined to this model’s electric tests, and the figures that exist elsewhere blend petrol and electric versions of this nameplate together — which would be misleading here.
