2007 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · CF07 EXU

The 2007 Renault Trafic presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 3 December 2025 at 167,453 miles. The tester recorded zero defects on this occasion, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required safety and environmental standards. This clean bill of health suggests the previous owner addressed any immediate mechanical or structural concerns promptly, reflecting a pattern of responsible upkeep rather than deferred maintenance. Accumulating roughly 8,800 miles annually over its nineteen-year lifespan, this Trafic sits exactly within the expected mileage bracket for its age. The annual mileage accumulation shows a slight downward trend in recent years, dropping from approximately 7,300 miles between the November 2023 and November 2024 tests to just under 4,000 miles between the November 2024 and December 2025 tests. A minor anomaly appears in the record on 16 November 2023, where a failure was registered at 156,125 miles despite no defects being recorded; the vehicle passed a retest on the same day, suggesting a procedural issue or a sensor anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Despite the pristine MOT record, a commercial vehicle of this age and mileage demands a thorough physical inspection. Buyers should pay close attention to the structural integrity of the chassis and load floor, as corrosion often develops unseen beneath cargo mats and side panels. Suspension components, including coil springs and trailing arm bushes, require scrutiny for wear typical of a van that has likely carried heavy loads. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, particularly given the slight reduction in recent mileage which can cause surface corrosion on underutilized braking components. Inspecting the exhaust system for leaks and verifying the condition of the timing belt and water pump will provide further assurance of the drivetrain's longevity.
