Our Verdict
Highly recommended for those seeking a low-mileage specimen with a perfect MOT record. This vehicle represents a rare example of a light-used commercial asset.
The primary selling point of this vehicle is the mileage, which averages less than 1,000 miles per year. When inspecting, you must verify that the vehicle has been serviced regularly despite the low mileage, as low-mileage engines can suffer from fluid degradation and dry seals if not maintained. Check for a full service history to confirm that oil changes have been performed according to time intervals rather than just distance.
Inspect the tyres for signs of flat-spotting or cracking, which can occur on vehicles that sit for long periods. Because this is a Renault Trucks product, ensure any specialist commercial components or hydraulic systems are functioning correctly, as low-use commercial vehicles can sometimes suffer from seized components or perished gaskets due to inactivity.
With a 2.3-litre diesel engine, fuel economy will be highly dependent on the specific body configuration and load of the vehicle. Tax bands and insurance groups vary based on the specific weight and usage class, but buyers should expect standard commercial vehicle rates.
Maintenance costs should theoretically be lower than average due to minimal wear and tear, though you must budget for annual time-based servicing (oil, filters, and fluids) which is critical for the engine's health.
While the MOT history shows zero defects, you should personally inspect for common issues associated with low-mileage vehicles such as aged rubber components, perished hoses, and brake corrosion from inactivity. Pay close attention to the brake discs and calipers for heavy rust if the vehicle has not been driven frequently.
Since the MOT records have shown no advisories between 2022 and 2025, the mechanical components appear to be in good order, but always verify the condition of the exhaust treatment system (DPF), as these can be prone to issues in short-trip diesel engine usage.
This 2016 Renault Trucks vehicle presents a highly unusual usage profile, having covered only 8,482 miles in ten years of ownership. The MOT history is remarkably clean, with four consecutive passes and no recorded defects or advisories back to 2022. Given the 2299cc diesel engine and low mileage, it appears to have been used for very short trips or remained stationary frequently.
No aggregate reliability data available for this specific model-variant combination.
