2021 Renault Trafic LL30 Sport Energy DCI 2.0L Diesel · FG71 EAC

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate following a pass on 15 September 2025 at 75,214 miles, with only a minor advisory noted. The maintenance trend appears broadly stable. The tester flagged a worn and split anti-slip rubber pad on the brake pedal, a minor interior wear item rather than a mechanical fault. No serious defects were recorded in either the 2024 or 2025 tests, suggesting the core mechanical and structural systems have remained sound through its most recent inspections. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story. Between the September 2024 test at 54,886 miles and the September 2025 test at 75,214 miles, the van covered 20,328 miles in a single year. That is a significant jump from the earlier average of roughly 15,000 miles per year. Such a sharp increase points to sustained high-use operation, likely long-distance or commercial duty cycles, which accelerates wear on drivetrain, braking, and suspension components. The MOT record itself is sparse, with only two tests available for a vehicle registered in 2021, so a full service history would be valuable to confirm whether routine maintenance kept pace with that usage. The 2024 test flagged both front tyres worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edges. Edge wear typically indicates misaligned tracking or underinflation, and the fact that both fronts were affected simultaneously suggests a possible alignment issue that may have persisted into the current mileage. A buyer should have the front suspension geometry checked and inspect the inner sidewalls of all tyres for uneven wear patterns. The 2025 advisory on the brake pedal pad, while minor, hints at heavy pedal use consistent with high mileage. A thorough inspection of the braking system, including disc thickness, pad condition, and caliper operation, is advisable. Given the van's commercial nature and rapid mileage gain, a close look at suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and subframe mounting points for fatigue or corrosion would be a prudent step before purchase.
