2011 Renault Master 2.2L Diesel · 1 DCM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test on 22 December 2025 at 138,231 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of reactive repair, as the vehicle failed a just five days prior to that test at 138,220 miles due to an ABS warning lamp. The fact that the fault was rectified to secure a pass suggests the owner is willing to address safety-critical failures immediately rather than allowing defects to persist. At 138,231 miles over 15 years, this Renault Master averages approximately 9,200 miles per year, which is consistent with typical commercial vehicle usage for its age. The records show a consistent annual testing pattern with roughly 6,000 miles driven between the December 2024 and December 2025 tests. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has been in active rather than sitting idle for long periods, which generally helps in preventing the premature degradation of rubber components and coolant seals. A buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and suspension assembly. The December 2023 test flagged significant corrosion on both rear brake pipes which were further obscured by grease, a common tactic used to hide structural decay from a tester. You should inspect these lines for any remaining pitting and ensure the repairs were comprehensive rather than merely patched. Additionally, the 2022 advisory regarding oiling on the offside front shock absorber should be checked for active leaks, as misting often precedes a total failure of the damper seal. The recent ABS failure recorded in late 2025 warrants a diagnostic check to ensure the sensor or module is not prone to recurring intermittent faults. Given the age of the vehicle and the history of pipe corrosion, the chassis should also be examined for structural integrity, particularly around the mounting points and wheel arches where moisture typically accumulates. While the current MOT is clean, the recurring nature of brake-related and suspension issues indicates a vehicle entering a stage where component wear will require more frequent monitoring.
