2003 RENAULT TRAFIC1.9L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 25 July 2025 at 139,774 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history shows a recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by passes within a very short timeframe. This suggests that minor defects, such as bulbs, wipers, or minor adjustments, are being identified and rectified immediately prior to re-testing rather than indicating a deep-seated mechanical failure or structural neglect. The mileage profile is consistent with a 23-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per annum. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the vehicle covered 4,716 miles, and it added another 5,578 miles in the year leading up to the July 2025 test. This low annual mileage suggests the van has not been subjected to heavy strain on the drivetrain or suspension, though the high age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of degradation in rubber-based components, fluid seals, and potential surface corrosion irrespective of the distance driven. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that triggered the recent failures in August 2024 and July 2025. While the record does not list specific defects for those failures, the proximity of the failures to the passes often indicates minor items like lighting, emissions, or brake efficiency adjustments. Given the age of the majoric, a check of the structural integrity, specifically the chassis and sills, is essential to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed, as these are common failure points for this model. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and artwork springs for cracking to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in dry- rot of components over time.
