2003 Renault Master 2.5L Diesel · FJ53 JXM

The Renault Master presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 September 2025 at 243,654 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the prior four years. Annual mileage sits close to the typical 10,594 per year for a 23-year-old vehicle. The records show 237,537 miles in October 2021, rising to 238,849 by October 2022, 240,608 by October 2023, 242,386 by October 2024, and 243,654 by September 2025. The annual increments of roughly 1,100 to 1,800 miles indicate light commercial use with no gaps in testing and no sudden accumulation. The DVSA history is sparse in advisories, showing no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion across the full five-year span. A clean MOT sheet with zero advisories at this age and mileage suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current, though it does not confirm component condition beneath the pass threshold. Buyers should still inspect brake discs for lip wear, check suspension arms and bushes for play, and examine chassis rails and sills for hidden rust that a visual test may miss. Given the 243,654-mile figure, the drivetrain and clutch have absorbed substantial load even if unflagged. A pre-purchase inspection should include a cold start, gearbox shift check, and underside survey for exhaust and subframe integrity before commitment.
