Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and thorough inspec
When viewing this Renault Trafic, prioritize a thorough test drive to check for any lingering steering rack issues or brake binding, which were prominent in the 2023 records. Given the 2024 advisories regarding brake discs and pads, you should verify if these components have been replaced since that test.
Ask the seller for evidence of recent maintenance regarding the oil leak and shock absorbers noted in previous years. Because this is a 2.0L diesel workhorse, ensure the timing belt and water pump service intervals have been documented, as these are critical for this engine type.
As a 1996cc diesel, running costs will be influenced by fuel prices and your typical load capacity. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a 2011-era van.
Insurance groups for the Trafic vary depending on driver profile, but commercial vehicles often attract higher premiums. Maintenance costs may fluctuate; while the 2025 MOT was clean, the history of steering rack play and suspension wear suggests that components like bushes and joints may require periodic replacement.
Specifically inspect the front suspension and steering. The 2023 MOT failure highlighted play in the steering rack inner joints and a worn track rod end, so listen for knocks or wandering steering during a test drive.
Check the braking system thoroughly. The 2024 MOT recorded worn rear brake discs and thin pads, as well as previous issues with binding brakes. Additionally, inspect the engine bay for any signs of the oil leak that was flagged in 2023 to ensure it has been properly rectified.
This 2011 silver Renault Trafic has covered 123,479 miles since its first registration in February 2011. The MOT history reveals a period of instability in 2023 with a failure involving multiple suspension and steering components, though the 2025 test shows no defects recorded. The vehicle's mileage is consistent with a commercial vehicle of this age.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Renault Trafic to provide a comparative benchmark.
