2015 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · HK65 HGA

This 2015 Renault Trafic holds a valid MOT certificate issued on November 10, 2025, at 134,765 miles following a failure six days prior for steering and suspension wear alongside tyre damage. The maintenance trend points toward a vehicle that requires regular mechanical intervention to pass its annual tests, highlighted by repeated failures for steering components and suspension joints. Previous test failures in 2021 and 2022 also involved track rod ends and anti-roll bar linkages, confirming that front-end steering geometry suffers from chronic wear under this vehicle's working load. Accumulating 134,765 miles across roughly eleven years results in an average of more than 12,000 miles annually, representing heavy commercial use typical of a light utility van. Mileage accumulation remained steady over the recorded history, increasing by roughly 10,000 to 17,000 miles per year, with a notable jump of over 16,000 miles between October 2022 and October 2023. This intensive operational pace naturally accelerates fatigue on drivetrain peripherals, wheel bearings, and braking architecture. A physical inspection must prioritize the front suspension and steering systems, specifically checking the track rod ends, anti-roll bar drop links, and suspension strut top mounts for play, as these items feature recurrently across multiple annual examinations. The braking system requires careful scrutiny of the discs and pads, noting previous advisories for scored friction surfaces and thin pads from the October 2024 test at 124,064 miles. Buyers should also inspect the tyre condition closely across all corners, as past records indicate susceptibility to sidewall cuts and edge wear.
