2011 Renault Master 2.3L Diesel · CU11 BOV

The Renault Master presents as roadworthy on its most recent test, passing cleanly on 2026-02-27 at 186,494 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the usable history, with the three most recent annual tests showing no advisories or faults. The only blemish sits in late 2024, where the vehicle failed twice in quick succession before a clean pass, yet neither failure logged any defect against the DVSA categories, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault. At roughly 15 years old the van carries 186,494 miles, equating to about 12,433 miles per year, which is high for a 2011 light commercial but consistent with fleet or delivery use. Mileage accumulation slowed markedly in 2024: the record shows 183,876 miles on 2024-09-17, 183,933 on 2024-10-16, and 183,993 on a second 2024-10-16 entry, a gain of only 117 miles across a month. The jump to 184,224 by 2025-02-19 and 186,494 by 2026-02-27 confirms normal yearly use resumed, with no standing period severe enough to trigger battery or brake corrosion advisories. Given the clean sheets from 2025 and 2026 and the defect-free failures in 2024, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and chassis corrosion, as a high-mileage Renault Master of this age commonly hides rust at sill and spring mount points not captured by a pass with no defects. The brake discs, suspension bushes, and coil springs warrant physical measurement, since the MOT record offers no advisory trail to confirm wear levels between 183,993 and 186,494 miles. The absence of recurring mechanical flags implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the twin 2024 failures with zero recorded defects remain unexplained and merit a check of the full DVSA test documents. Treat the van as mechanically sound on paper; verify drivetrain condition and exhaust emissions on a cold start before purchase.
