2006 Renault Master 3.0L Diesel · CU06 ALO

The Renault Master presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 February 2026 at 96,597 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from April 2023 to April 2025 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failure on 6 April 2023 at 91,919 miles, which the record shows with no defects listed, followed by a pass one week later on 13 April 2023 at 91,924 miles. This suggests an administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. At roughly 20 years old the van shows 96,597 recorded miles, an average of about 4,830 miles per year. The mileage crept from 91,924 in April 2023 to 96,597 by February 2026, a total of 4,673 miles over nearly three years. The largest single-year movement was 1,536 miles between April 2024 (92,057) and April 2025 (93,593). Such low annual use implies long standing periods, which on a 2006 chassis raises the risk of perished rubber components and corrosion rather than drivetrain fatigue. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the vehicle. The MOT history flags no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural integrity, but the age and low-use pattern mean damp storage could hide chassis rust and seized brake calipers not caught in a dry-road test. Check the exhaust for internal rot and confirm tyres have not cracked from age despite low tread wear. Given the clean test sequence since the unexplained 2023 failure, the van shows no worsening mechanical trend. The previous keeper appears to have maintained basic compliance, though the sparse defect data leaves component condition unverified without hands-on assessment.
