2016 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · CH61 CAR

This Renault Trafic presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 28 March 2025 at 66,132 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This continues a consistent trend of clean passes dating back to April 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very light duty. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a ten year old commercial vehicle. Between April 2022 and March 2025, the odometer rose from 47,031 to 66,132 miles, averaging roughly 6,000 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or periods of prolonged standing that would suggest neglect or hidden mechanical deterioration. The failure recorded on 12 April 2024 was resolved on the same day, and the lack of specific defect data for that entry suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue rather than a significant mechanical failure. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last four tests is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and type. Usually, testers flag wear on suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or tyre tread depth. Because the MOT record is unusually clean, a physical inspection should focus on areas the tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check the underside for structural corrosion and inspect the condition of the clutch and gearbox, as these are high-wear items that the MOT does not rigorously test. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and filter replacements align with the low mileage. While the MOT record shows no mechanical red flags, the lack of any wear-and-tear advisories means the buyer must confirm that consumables like brake pads and tyres have actually been replaced rather than simply remaining just above the legal limit.
