Renault 19 Rl Prima D (1993)
1993 Renault 19 Rl Prima D
CarHunch is tracking 612 1993 Renault 19 Rl Prima D vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1993 Renault 19 RL Prima D is a serious reliability concern — zero vehicles in this cohort of 612 passed their MOT, compared to the UK average of 80%, and this applies uniformly across the 611 diesel examples tested. No dangerous defects were recorded and there were no failures or advisories logged, which means these cars simply aren't on the road anymore or the data reflects vehicles that have been retired from active use.
At 30+ years old, any 1993 Renault 19 you encounter is likely a restoration project, classic car, or has been off the road for years — the zero pass rate reflects the age and condition of surviving examples rather than a defect in the model itself. If you're considering one, treat it as a non-functional purchase unless you're prepared for a full recommissioning by a specialist, and budget accordingly.
We have 612 1993 Renault 19 Rl Prima D vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1993 Renault 19 Rl Prima D
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
