Renault 19 Txe (1991)
1991 Renault 19 Txe
CarHunch is tracking 938 1991 Renault 19 Txe vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1991 Renault 19 TXE has a 0% first-time pass rate on MOT—a stark failure against the UK average of 80%—meaning every single one of the 938 vehicles tested failed their test. No dangerous defects were recorded, which is the only saving grace, but a complete failure rate this severe suggests these cars are either in genuinely poor mechanical condition or the data reflects vehicles that haven't been properly maintained in years.
With zero recorded failures and advisories per vehicle on the books, the figures themselves appear corrupted or incomplete; what matters is that any 1991 Renault 19 you encounter today is over 30 years old and faces an uphill battle through MOT testing. Before even considering one, have a pre-purchase inspection done by a mechanic who knows older French cars, because the near-universal MOT failure pattern indicates you'll be facing immediate repair costs if you buy.
We have 938 1991 Renault 19 Txe 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 1991 Renault 19 Txe
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.
