2022 Renault Trafic LL30 Sport Blue DCI 2.0L Diesel · CF22 UDL

A clean two-test MOT history with zero recorded advisories or failures suggests this Trafic has so far avoided the wear-related items the DVSA examiner would normally flag on a working van. The most recent test on 19 June 2026 returned a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the same outcome on 27 June 2025. Two consecutive clean passes on a commercial-derived vehicle is a positive early indicator of roadworthiness, although it should be noted that only a short MOT window is on file, so longer-term component durability cannot be fully judged from the data available. Annual mileage of roughly 8,443 miles over a four-year life is broadly typical for the vehicle's age and is consistent with a mix of light commercial and private use. There are no unusual recorded gaps between tests or sudden mileage spikes that would suggest a long period off the road or a change in usage pattern. Mechanically, this level of annual accumulation means the diesel engine, clutch, dual-mass flywheel, turbocharger and associated emissions components have seen moderate working hours. Brakes and suspension will have experienced predictable wear, but consumables such as discs, pads, tyres and drive belts are unlikely to be at the end of their useful life purely on a mileage basis. Given the absence of any specific flagged components in the MOT record, a buyer should focus their pre-purchase inspection on the areas that the examiner would be looking for on a Trafic of this age and mileage, particularly the front suspension and steering linkages, rear leaf spring bushes, and brake pipes and flexi-hoses where corrosion can develop in the wheel arch and underbody areas. On a test drive, listen for clonking or knocking from the front suspension over uneven surfaces, which would indicate worn anti-roll bar drop links, control arm bushes or top mount bearings, and pay attention to any knocking from the rear under load, which can point to worn leaf spring shackles. Steering should feel precise without vagueness at speed or clunks when turning on full lock, and the brake pedal should feel firm without excessive travel or judder under braking, which on a diesel van of this age could indicate warped front discs or a binding caliper. The 2.0-litre Blue dCi engine should start promptly from cold without excessive smoke and should pull cleanly through the gears without hesitation, turbo lag or flat spots that could suggest impending injector, EGR or turbo wear. Listen for any diesel knock on cold start, and check the exhaust for excessive blue smoke under acceleration, which would indicate oil consumption issues common to higher-mileage dCi units. Verify that the AdBlue system is functioning correctly and that no dashboard emissions warning lights are present, as diesel emissions aftertreatment faults are a known cost area on this generation of Trafic. Finally, inspect the underside for any signs of fluid leaks from the engine, gearbox or power steering, and check the load area floor and rear wheel arches for the surface corrosion that commonly affects these vans.
