2014 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · GL64 RZY

The vehicle currently fails the MOT on the 2025-11-24 test at 111,930 miles, indicating a significant deterioration in roadworthiness compared to the most recent record. This failure represents a worsening trend, as the vehicle has not passed the test since the 2024-12-20 inspection at 110,186 miles. The 2024-12-20 test was also failed, suggesting that the previous owner's maintenance was insufficient to prevent the current failure. The vehicle has not passed the 2023-12-13 test at 108,599 miles, confirming that the 2024-12-20 failure occurred prior to the 2023-12-13 inspection. This sequence of failures indicates that the vehicle's mechanical condition has deteriorated over the last three years, with the most recent failure occurring in late 2024. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 9,328 miles annually, which is consistent with its 12-year age. While the mileage is relatively stable and does not show a sudden spike in wear, the lack of passing tests suggests that the vehicle has not been maintained to the required standard. The gap between the 2023-12-13 and 2024-12-20 inspections reveals that the vehicle has been driven for roughly three years without any repairs or maintenance. This lack of intervention has allowed wear on critical components to accumulate, particularly on the brake discs, suspension arms, and brake pipes, which are the most likely sources of failure. Given the recurring faults and the worsening trend, the buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to assess the condition of the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain. The 2024-12-20 failure flagged a front brake disc that is worn, pitted, or scored, which is a serious structural risk that requires immediate replacement. The same inspection must be conducted on the rear brake disc, which was also found worn and covered in grease or other material, indicating that the brake system is no longer in good condition. Furthermore, the inspection should include checking the suspension bushes and arm pins, as the 2024-12-20 test flagged these components as worn but not excessively moving. A thorough physical examination is required to determine if these mechanical issues are stable, worsening, or resolving, which will determine the need for further servicing or potential replacement of the vehicle.
