2010 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · FP10 FSG

The Renault Trafic presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent pass on 4 September 2024 at 181,486 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The DVSA entries show no defects flagged at any stage, and the two failure entries logged on the same dates as passes in 2022 and 2024 carry no recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults. No worsening pattern or recurring advisories emerge from the data. The odometer sat at 165,831 miles on 7 January 2022 and rose to 180,275 miles by 11 July 2023, an addition of 14,444 miles across eighteen months. A further 1,211 miles brought the total to 181,486 miles at the September 2024 test. Annual use averages near 11,343 miles, consistent with typical light commercial duty for a sixteen-year-old van. The record shows a near two-year gap between the January 2022 and July 2023 tests, then a tighter fourteen-month cycle to 2024, with no mileages suggesting standing neglect or severe high-use strain. Given the clean test lineage, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion on sills, chassis rails, and suspension mounting points, as a 2010 Trafic at 181,486 miles is prone to hidden rust the MOT may not have cited. The tester logged no advisories on brake discs, calipers, or suspension bushes, yet consumable wear on tyres and wiper blades cannot be excluded despite absence of flags. Verify the V5C and test certificates for the two same-day fail-pass pairs, since the DVSA log gives no defect reason and the prior owner may have presented the van with a minor non-compliance later cleared. The sparse, defect-free record implies reasonable basic upkeep, but in-person checks on drivetrain condition and exhaust emissions remain prudent before purchase.
