2011 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · AF11 NNR

The Renault Scenic presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 18 October 2025 at 119,293 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 6 October 2023 at 112,690 miles, which the DVLA record shows with no defects listed, followed by a pass six days later on 12 October 2023 at the same mileage. This suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle has since shown no recurring advisories or worsening condition. Annual mileage sits at a typical 7,953 miles for a 15-year-old car. The records show 105,919 miles in October 2022, 112,690 miles in October 2023, 114,869 miles in October 2024, and 119,293 miles in October 2025. That equates to roughly 6,771 miles in year one, 2,179 in year two, and 4,424 in year three, confirming light and consistent use with no rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps. The clean sheet across all passing tests indicates the previous keeper kept basic consumables and emissions within limits, though the sparse advisory history means worn items were likely replaced before they triggered formal notes. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as the Scenic of this era is prone to structural rust that a pass with no defects does not rule out. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for binding or uneven wear despite the clean MOT, given the low annual mileage can allow moisture-related seizing when the car stands idle. The October 2023 fail with zero defects recorded warrants a check of the VOSA failure reason to confirm it was clerical rather than a withdrawn test.
