RENAULT MASTER1995 · 2.5L Diesel

The Renault Master presents a broadly stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent test on 12 January 2022 at 94,179 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the only blemish was a failure on 17 November 2021 at 84,175 miles, though the DVSA entry lists no specific defects, which suggests an administrative or unrecorded-cause rejection rather than a clear mechanical fault. The trend across the five available tests from 2018 to 2022 shows no recurring advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions, indicating the vehicle was presented in acceptable condition when tested. The recorded mileage is low for a 31-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,038 miles per year. The figures show odd movement: a drop from 93,004 miles in November 2020 to 92,149 in May 2019 is impossible under normal use and points to a clerical error in the record. A large jump then appears between November 2021 (84,175 miles) and January 2022 (94,179 miles), adding 10,004 miles in under two months, followed by no further tests since early 2022. The absence of MOT data for over four years relative to today's date of 16 July 2026 means the current roadworthiness cannot be confirmed from this history alone. Given the sparse and clean test record, no recurring mechanical faults or structural risks are flagged for the buyer to chase. The long standing period implied by low annual use and the four-year test gap raises the likelihood of perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and hidden structural rust on the chassis and sills. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension arms, brake lines, and underbody for corrosion, and verify the odometer against the inconsistent entries before any purchase.
