Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Given the mileage of over 150,000 miles, your primary focus should be on the mechanical integrity of the 1461cc diesel engine and the turbocharger. You should request evidence of a consistent service history, as MOT records alone do not confirm whether the oil and filters have been changed regularly.
Negotiate based on the high mileage and check for signs of wear in the suspension and clutch. Because the model aggregate data identifies ball joints and tyres as common failure points, inspect these components thoroughly during a test drive to ensure they aren't nearing the end of their service life.
As a 1.5L diesel, this Scenic is likely to offer decent fuel economy for long-distance driving, though urban use may impact this. Tax and insurance groups for this 2011 model are generally moderate, making it a typical choice for families.
Maintenance costs may increase as the vehicle ages and mileage climbs, particularly regarding wear-and-tear items like brakes, tyres, and suspension components. Expect to budget for more frequent repairs compared to a lower-mileage equivalent.
Pay close attention to the suspension components, specifically the ball joints, as these are noted as a common failure reason for this model in aggregate data. Check the tyres for even wear, as tyre defects are a frequent MOT failure reason for Renault Scenics.
Additionally, inspect the headlamps for clarity and functionality, as headlamp issues are a known common failure point. Given the 152,917 miles recorded, check for any signs of oil leaks or excessive smoke from the exhaust which could indicate engine wear.
This 2011 Renault Scenic (SH11AEJ) is a 1.5L diesel MPV finished in red. It has covered 152,917 miles as of its last MOT in February 2024, which is substantially higher than the model average of 6,140 miles per year. Although the most recent MOT pass was achieved without defects, the high mileage suggests heavy usage throughout its life.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 72.6% average MOT pass rate, with ball joints and headlamps being frequent failure points.
