2016 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · BA16 AEA

This Renault Trafic presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 23 February 2026 at 75,798 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without the recurring mechanical failures often seen in commercial vans of this age. The mileage is typical for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,580 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady, moving from 53,160 miles in June 2023 to 75,798 miles by February 2026. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration of rubber components and seals. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this vintage. The record shows no mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or brake disc pitting. While the June 2024 entry shows a failure and a pass on the same day at 61,469 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests this was likely a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. A physical inspection should still focus on the areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check the condition of the clutch and gearbox operation, as these are high-wear items not specifically tested for smoothness during an MOT. Examine the chassis for surface rust in common Renault Trafic areas, as the clean record suggests the previous owner prioritised the specific requirements of the test.
