2002 RENAULT SCENIC1.4L PETROL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent inspection on 5 August 2025 at 87,485 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently achieved passes without any recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows failures on the days preceding the tests in 2024 and 2025, the immediate subsequent passes suggest that any identified issues were rectified quickly rather than representing a persistent mechanical failure. The recorded mileage is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,645 miles per year. Between June 2023 at 81,518 miles and August 2024 at 84,151 miles, the car covered only 2,633 miles in over fourteen months. This low usage pattern often indicates less wear on drivetrain components and engine-internals, though long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components such as suspension bushes, tyre hoses, and brake seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and rear floor pans, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from hidden corrosion if they have not been stored in dry conditions. Given the age of the Renault Scenic, check for signs of seized brake calipers or perished brake lines resulting from lack of use. Additionally, inspect the suspension geometry for cracks or dry rot, as low mileage does not prevent age-related fatigue over two decades.
