2015 RENAULT TRAFIC1.6L Diesel

The 2015 Renault Trafic demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-04-30 at 129,319 miles resulting in a pass. However, a failure on 2025-04-29 at 129,307 miles—just one day prior—suggests potential inconsistency in testing or minor unresolved issues. No defects were recorded across all tests, indicating no critical mechanical or structural faults. The vehicle’s maintenance history shows no recurring problems, but the proximity of the failure and subsequent pass warrants scrutiny of any unresolved concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 129,319 miles aligns with its 11-year age, averaging ~11,756 miles annually. The MOT records span three years with consistent intervals, though the data lacks detailed defect reports. The 2023-05-04 test at 102,123 miles and 2024-04-23 tests at 115,179 miles both passed without issues, suggesting routine compliance. However, the 2025 tests—occurring 11 months after the last record—raise questions about maintenance continuity. The absence of recorded defects implies no major faults, but the failure without explanation highlights the need for further inspection. A buyer should prioritize checking suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be inspected for binding or uneven wear, as these are common in high-mileage vehicles. Corrosion in the underbody or exhaust system, though not flagged in MOTs, may require closer examination. The lack of defect records is positive, but the recent failure underscores the importance of a pre-purchase inspection to verify mechanical integrity beyond MOT data.
