2006 Renault Trafic 1.9L Diesel · FP06 VNX

The Renault Trafic presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 28 October 2023 at 249,293 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the 11 November 2022 test at 246,079 miles also passed cleanly. The history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across the available entries, indicating the vehicle was presented in acceptable condition at each successful examination. The recorded mileage of 249,293 at the 2023 test reflects an average of roughly 12,465 miles per year over the vehicle's 20-year life, which is high for a 2006 panel van and implies sustained commercial or fleet-style use. Between the 8 October 2021 test at 242,410 miles and the 11 November 2022 test at 246,079 miles, the vehicle covered only about 3,669 miles in thirteen months, a low accumulation phase. From 2022 to 2023 it added just 3,214 miles. The two failed tests on 8 October 2021 and 10 November 2022 both list no defects recorded, meaning the failures stemmed from administrative or unlogged presentation issues rather than flagged wear such as tyre tread, brake discs, or suspension bushes. Given the sparse MOT data and absence of recorded advisories, a buyer should not assume structural integrity or consumable condition from the clean passes alone. At 249,293 miles the coil springs, suspension bushes, and brake calipers will have endured heavy cyclic loading; physical inspection for corrosion on chassis members and binding rear brakes is warranted. The twin failure entries with no defects suggest the van may have been presented without required documentation or with minor unrecorded issues, so verifying service history and inspecting exhaust emissions hardware remains prudent before purchase.
