Renault 25 GTS (1984)
1984 Renault 25 GTS
CarHunch is tracking 1,043 1984 Renault 25 GTS vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
Every single one of the 1,043 Renault 25 GTS models tested failed its MOT—a stark contrast to the UK average of 80% pass rate—and none have ever recorded a dangerous defect, suggesting these vehicles simply aren't roadworthy by modern standards rather than presenting acute safety hazards. The complete failure rate across all petrol variants means any 1984 Renault 25 GTS on the road today will need significant work to pass inspection, so treat any available example as a restoration project rather than a usable daily driver. Given the age of these cars (40 years old), zero mileage data is recorded, but the universal MOT failures point to accumulated wear across brakes, suspension, emissions, and lighting that's typical of vehicles this old. If you're considering one, budget for a professional pre-purchase inspection and expect to invest heavily in getting it roadworthy—or buy purely for restoration hobby purposes.
We have 1,043 1984 Renault 25 GTS 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 1984 Renault 25 GTS
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.
