Insight summary

Renault Wind is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 1,784 represented vehicles and 0.00% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 69.6% from 14,618 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 46. The current pool shows an average of 69,197 miles and an average age of 14.3 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 69,197 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by diesel, and the most frequent defect themes are coil springs, parking brake and track rod ends. The practical read is that the Renault Wind looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
