2018 RENAULT TRAFIC1.6L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear improving trend in mechanical maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 June 2025 at 54,049 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the recurring issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This transition from multiple advisories to a clean sheet suggests a proactive approach to rectifying flagged faults. The recorded mileage of 54,049 miles over eight years reflects an average usage of approximately 6,756 miles per annum, which aligns with typical expectations for a commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with 2,658 miles covered between the October 2024 and June 2025 tests, and roughly 7,000 miles prior. This regular operation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation which often lead to seal failure or brakerelated corrosion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, as the anti-roll bar linkage ball joints were a recurring fault across three consecutive tests in 2022, 2023, and 2024. While these appear resolved based on the 2025 pass, the repeated nature of the defect indicates these components may be prone to wear. Additionally, the brake discs noted as worn in October 2024 should be verified for thickness to ensure they were replaced rather than merely monitored. Check for signs of glazing or uneven thinning on the current rotors.
