2017 Renault Trucks Unknown 2.3L Diesel · CN17 APZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 March 2026 at 288,598 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite occasional testing failures, as the vehicle consistently returns to a passing standard after immediate repairs. The March 2026 failure occurring just four days before the pass suggests a minor component failure or a specific test item that was rectified quickly, rather than a systemic mechanical decline or neglect. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 32,000 miles per year. Between March 2024 and March 2025, the vehicle covered 11,486 miles, followed by another 7,607 miles in the ten months leading up to the March 2026 test. This consistent high annual usage indicates heavy commercial use, which places significant stress on the drivetrain, turbocharger, and suspension assemblies. The regularity of the annual testing suggests the vehicle remains in active operation rather than sitting for long periods. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components and braking system, as the high mileage accelerates the wear on bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. While the vehicle has passed its recent tests, the volume of road miles increases the likelihood of structural corrosion on the chassis or exhaust thinning that may not trigger a failure immediately. Given the usage, checking the engine for oil oil leaks and turbo integrity is essential to ensure the high-frequency use has not compromised the core mechanical health of the Renault.
