2016 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · AV66 AEK

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded in its most recent August 2025 MOT at 103,700 miles. The maintenance trend is stable, as all five consecutive MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 passed without issues. No recurring mechanical or structural faults are evident in the record, indicating consistent upkeep. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the previous owner prioritized basic maintenance, though the lack of detailed defect notes limits insight into potential minor wear. The mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,370 miles per year. Tests were conducted at regular intervals, with no significant gaps between assessments. The 2024-2025 increase from 95,571 to 103,700 miles reflects gradual accumulation, avoiding abrupt spikes that might indicate excessive wear. The clean MOT history implies no major mechanical interventions, though this also means the record lacks data on components not tested during MOTs, such as transmission or engine internals. A buyer should physically inspect suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny for binding or uneven wear, as these can develop over time without triggering MOT failures. Structural corrosion, especially in underbody areas, should be checked, as it may not be evident in recorded tests. The absence of recorded issues is reassuring but does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing mechanical integrity.
