RENAULT MASTER2013 · 2.3L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 29 November 2024 at 216,690 miles. While the history shows instances of failure just days before successful passes, the lack of recorded defects on the passing certificates suggests either administrative errors in the database or minor issues that were rectified immediately before the official test. The absence of advisories across the last three passes indicates that the vehicle currently meets minimum legal standards without immediate pending repairs, despite its high mileage. The mileage profile is consistently high for a 13-year-old van, averaging approximately 16,668 miles per year. Between November 2022 and October 2023, the vehicle covered 11,214 miles, showing a steady and heavy usage pattern rather than intermittent use. This rate of operation suggests constant commercial application rather than long periods of standing. Such high annual mileage places significant strain on the drivetrain, turbocharger, and suspension geometry, which are subject to accelerated wear compared to lower-mileageage counterparts. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, which are prone to failure on Renault Masters exceeding 200,000 miles. Examine the chassis for corrosion around the mounting points and check for signs of play in the wish arms and bushes. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the brake system and the condition of the discs is essential, as the MOT does not assess the remaining life of these components beyond immediate safety failures. The lack of recorded advisories in the history does not guarantee that components like coil springs or dampers are not nearing the end of their functional life.
