2018 RENAULT MASTER2.3L Diesel

The 2018 Renault Master demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2026-02-09 confirming a pass at 72,178 miles. However, a prior failure on 2026-02-03—just six days earlier—without recorded defects suggests potential unresolved issues. The absence of specific mechanical or structural faults in the latest test indicates the vehicle is currently compliant, but the proximity of the failure and pass raises questions about the consistency of maintenance practices. Mileage progression shows a steady annual average of 9,022 miles, aligning with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle. The 2025-01-13 MOT at 62,650 miles and the 2023-10-25 test at 52,557 miles reveal no irregularities in service intervals, though the 2023-10-24 failure at the same mileage as the subsequent pass implies possible minor non-compliances addressed swiftly. The sparse defect reporting across all tests limits detailed analysis, but the vehicle’s consistent mileage suggests regular operation rather than prolonged inactivity. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade with age and mileage. The brake system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny for binding or uneven wear, common in vehicles with frequent short trips. Structural corrosion, especially in the chassis or underbody, should also be checked, as it can develop unnoticed in older vans. The lack of recorded emissions or exhaust-related issues is reassuring, but a physical inspection of the exhaust system is recommended to confirm integrity.
