Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the most rec
Focus your search for service records regarding the 1995cc diesel engine, specifically checking for timing belt and water pump replacements, which are critical maintenance items for this model. Request evidence of the repairs carried out in January 2025 to ensure the ball joints and suspension bushes were replaced with quality parts rather than temporary fixes.
Given the mileage, negotiate the price based on the likelihood of further wear and tear on the drivetrain and chassis. Ensure there is a clear record of oil changes, as high-mileage diesel engines are sensitive to lubrication intervals.
Fuel economy will be typical for a 2.0L diesel van, though costs will vary based on load and usage. Tax and insurance will fall into standard brackets for a 2013 commercial vehicle of this size.
Maintenance costs are expected to be higher than average due to the 156,448-mile odometer reading. You should budget for regular tyre replacements and the ongoing monitoring of suspension components, which have previously failed. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, is approximately £1,500-£2,200.
Carefully inspect the suspension and steering systems. The January 2025 MOT failure specifically noted excessively worn ball joints on both the nearside and offside front, as well as a worn nearside rear suspension arm pin or bush; check for any current knocks or instability during a test drive.
Perform a full lighting check. The vehicle's history shows recurring issues with position lamps, fog lamps, registration plate lamps, and headlamp aim. Finally, check the silver paintwork and body panels for corrosion, which is common in commercial vehicles of this vintage.
This silver 2013 Renault Trafic has recorded 156,448 miles. The MOT history indicates a pattern of passing after repairs, most notably a significant failure in January 2025 involving multiple suspension components. It presents as a typical high-mileage diesel commercial vehicle of its age.
