Renault G Scenic Dyn 7 Vvt (2007)
2007 Renault G Scenic Dyn 7 Vvt
CarHunch analysed 135 real MOT records for the 2007 Renault G Scenic Dyn 7 Vvt. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2007 Renault Grand Scénic is a risky buy: only 50.2% pass on first attempt, nearly 30 percentage points below the UK average of 80%, and it averages 1.07 failures per test. The dangerous defect rate sits at 2.2%, which is reassuringly low, but the volume of issues flagged suggests these are older vehicles with accumulated wear rather than one-off problems.
At an average mileage of 83,587 miles for a 17-year-old car, these examples have been reasonably well-used but not excessively so—the real concern is the pattern of failures and advisories (1.8 per vehicle) that point to ageing electrical, suspension and braking components typical of this model generation. Before viewing one, run a full diagnostic check and budget for at least £800–1,200 in repairs; this is not a hassle-free proposition unless the specific example has a full service history and recent major work.
What to check before buying a 2007 Renault G Scenic Dyn 7 Vvt
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.
