2015 Renault Trafic SL27 Business+ NRG DCI 1.6L Heavy oil · DP65 MKO

The vehicle's MOT history shows an inconsistent trend of compliance, moving from clean passes in 2023 and 2024 to a period of instability in mid-2025. While the most recent test on 9 June 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects, this followed two failures within a single month on 7 June 2025 and 25 May 2025. The lack of specific defect descriptions in the provided record makes it impossible to identify the exact mechanical causes of these failures, but the sudden shift from consecutive passes to two failures in quick succession suggests a period of mechanical instability. The recorded mileage of 96,693 miles is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 8,790 miles per year. The data shows steady progression through the testing years, with no significant gaps in the MOT timeline. The transition from the May 2024 pass to the May 2025 failure period indicates that the vehicle remained in regular use, though the recent cluster of failures in May and June 2025 marks a departure from the previous two years of clean results. A physical inspection is necessary to determine why the vehicle failed twice in May and June 2025. Because the record does not specify the faults, a buyer must manually check common wear items such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. The sudden appearance of failures after two years of clean records warrants a close examination of the braking system for binding calipers and an inspection of the underside for structural corrosion or exhaust leaks. Given the recent failures, checking the integrity of the drivetrain and steering components is also advisable. While the 9 June 2025 pass suggests the immediate issues were resolved, the pattern of two failures in short succession indicates that the vehicle may have required significant attention to meet minimum roadworthiness standards during that period. buying_score: 55 risk_level: Medium.
