2013 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · DV13 UUX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025. However, the maintenance trend shows a period of reactive repair rather than proactive upkeep. The November 2025 test at 76,362 miles resulted in a failure due to an excessively worn offside front anti-roll bar linkage, rear brake pads worn to the wear indicator, and an inoperative offside stop lamp. While these issues were rectified to pass two miles later, the failure indicates the owner only addresses mechanical faults when a test fails. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,874 miles per year to reach current 76,364 miles. The usage pattern appears consistent, with roughly 3,000 miles covered between November 2024 and November 2025, and approximately 6,000 miles between December 2023 and November 2024. This low annual mileage often leads to age-related degradation of rubber-based components rather than wear from high mileage. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the record shows recurring perishing and cracking on the nearside rear tyre across both 2022 and 2023. This suggests the vehicle may sit for long periods, causing the rubber to dry out despite low mileage. Given the recent failure of the anti-roll bar linkage and brake pads, a thorough check of the suspension bushings and brake assembly is necessary to ensure no other components are nearing the end of their functional life.
