2013 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · EY63 EBL

The Renault Trafic presents a clean and stable MOT history, with no defects recorded across five consecutive tests spanning from December 2022 to November 2025. The most recent entries—both a pass and a fail on the same day in November 2025 at 135,004 miles—suggest a minor administrative error rather than a mechanical issue, as no faults were logged in either instance. This consistency over three years indicates the vehicle has maintained its structural integrity and core mechanical systems without recurring advisories or failures. The absence of defects in tests as recent as November 2025 (just eight months prior to today) confirms the Trafic has met all DVSA roadworthiness criteria under normal operating conditions. Mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging around 10,385 miles per year over its 13-year lifespan. The recorded odometer progression—from 104,170 miles in December 2022 to 135,004 miles in November 2025—shows steady, moderate usage without sudden spikes or prolonged inactivity. There are no red flags in the mileage pattern to suggest neglect or excessive wear, though the identical readings for the two 2025 tests may warrant verification that the odometer has not been tampered with. The lack of advisories or defects further supports the conclusion that the Trafic has been serviced or maintained at a level sufficient to prevent major component failures. For a prospective buyer, the primary focus should be on consumable and wear items not covered by the MOT, particularly the suspension components—such as coil springs, shock absorbers, and bushings—which may show fatigue beyond what a basic test would detect. While the MOT history shows no brake-related failures, a closer inspection of the calipers, discs, and hydraulic lines is prudent, especially given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Structural corrosion, often hidden in wheel arches or underseal areas, should also be checked, as should the condition of the exhaust system for leaks or deterioration. Tyre tread depth and condition, though not recorded in these MOTs, would be critical to verify in person, given their role in safety and compliance.
