2019 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · DV19 UHM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on 1 December 2025 at 54,221 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a period of reactive rather than proactive care. The immediate failure on that same day revealed multiple defects including an inoperative stop lamp and three tyres reaching the legal limit. While these were rectified to achieve passing, the pattern suggests the owner only addressed essential safety items when necessitated by a formal test failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a seven-year-old van, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 6,468 miles between the May 2023 test and the May 2024 test, followed by another 2,578 miles covered in the seven months leading up to the December 2024 inspection. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used for light to medium-duty commercial tasks, which typically preserves the mechanical integrity of the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should physically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the December 2025 failure flagged three as worn close to the limit and showing uneven edge wear. This often indicates underlying alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require attention. The buyer must also verify the lighting system, specifically the stop lamp and registration plate bulbs, to ensure the repairs made after the failure remain functional. Given the lack of structural corrosion advisories in the history, the focus should remain on consumable wear and the state of the braking system.
