2016 Renault Master 2.3L Diesel · AY16 CPX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 3 September 2024 at 61,095 miles. The test recorded a failure for the front windscreens wiper not clearing effectively, but the subsequent pass indicates the defect was remedied before the final assessment. Over the recorded period the pattern of defects has moved from structural and brake‑related failures to isolated consumable items, suggesting an improving maintenance trend. Mileage averages roughly 6,100 miles per year, well below the typical 12,000‑15,000 miles for a vehicle of this age, indicating relatively light use. The log shows a steady progression from 31,601 miles in February 2019 to 61,095 miles in September 2024, with no large unexplained jumps, which supports the view that the vehicle has not been subjected to high‑stress mileage spikes. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear suspension assembly: previous records note an off‑side rear anti‑roll bar bush detached from its bracket in March 2022 and a rear shock bolt missing in March 2021. Verifying that the anti‑roll bar and shock mounts are secure, and that bushings show no excessive wear, will confirm that the earlier issues have been properly addressed. Inspection of the rear tyre for any exposed ply or cords, as previously flagged, remains prudent. Brake balance and pad thickness also merit close examination; a brake imbalance was recorded in 2022 and front brake pads were reported thin in 2019. Checking for even brake disc wear and confirming that pads are within safe limits will ensure the braking system remains reliable. Finally, confirm that the front windscreens wiper clears the screen effectively and that washer fluid delivery is adequate, as these were the only items failing in the latest test.
