2018 RENAULT TRAFIC1.6L Diesel

The Renault Trafic presents as roadworthy with a clean test history. The most recent examination on 5 June 2025 at 54,385 miles, roughly thirteen months before the present date of 20 July 2026, returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across the five consecutive annual tests from June 2021 to June 2025, the vehicle cleared every assessment without advisories. This maintenance trend is stable and shows no worsening mechanical or structural concerns. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical light commercial use for an eight-year-old van. The odometer advanced from 14,322 miles at the 7 June 2021 test to 25,900 miles by 21 June 2022, then 35,092 miles on 8 June 2023, 46,567 miles on 25 June 2024, and 54,385 miles at the final record. Annual increments average near 6,800 miles, with no abrupt gaps or rapid surges. The DVSA dataset is sparse on detail but uniformly clean, indicating the previous keepers maintained statutory testing discipline and skipped no basic upkeep. No tester flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity issues across the record. Such an unbroken pass sheet implies the van received regular attention. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of wear-prone components before purchase. At 54,385 miles the front suspension arms, rear leaf springs, and brake friction materials warrant tactile checks for fatigue. Examine underbody seams and chassis rails for incipient rust given the vehicle's age. Verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition despite absence of advisories, as consumable wear falls outside MOT failure thresholds until critical. The Trafic's drivetrain mounts and steering joints should be assessed for play. Documentary evidence supports a sound mechanical prospect, but in-person verification remains prudent.
