2016 RENAULT MASTER MM35 BUSINESS + DCI2.3L Diesel

The Renault Master presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 13 November 2025 at 22,865 miles which recorded no defects. Prior to that, the September 2024 test at 20,315 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the five-year record, and the upkeep pattern is consistent rather than deteriorating. At roughly ten years old the van has covered just 22,865 miles, an average of about 2,286 miles per year. The May 2022 test at 11,863 miles and the May 2023 test at 16,187 miles confirm light annual use. A notable gap exists between May 2023 and September 2024, where mileage rose to 20,566 miles by the failed test on 5 September 2024, then dropped to 20,315 miles for the pass eight days later. The MOT history is sparse and clean aside from that anomalous September 2024 failure, which logged no defects and suggests an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical concern. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person given the low mileage and the unexplained 2024 failure. Long periods of standing common with light-use vans can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to develop flat spots, and suspension bushes to crack through lack of flex. The record shows no corrosion, exhaust, or structural advisories, but the 5 September 2024 failure with zero recorded defects warrants confirmation that no hidden brake binding or emissions irregularity was omitted. Given the clean pass in November 2025, the Master requires no immediate remedial work per DVSA data. Prospective owners should verify service history, check for dormant rust on chassis members, and confirm the brake discs and calipers remain free given the van's intermittent use pattern.
