2019 Renault Grand Scenic 1.3L Petrol · HS19 FLM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean pass on 21 May 2026 at 69,145 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive care. A failure occurred just six days prior at 68,813 miles due to multiple electrical and mechanical defects, including a worn nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint. While these specific issues were rectified to achieve the subsequent pass, the history indicates that the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they result in an official MOT failure. The mileage profile is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The car progressed from 37,808 miles in May 2024 to 52,250 miles in May 2025, and then another 16,895 miles by May 2026. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use, which explains the standard wear observed on consumable components. There are no significant gaps in testing intervals that would suggest degradation of rubber components or seals. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension components, as the 2026 failure highlighted an excessively worn ball joint which may indicate wider wear across the steering rack or wishbones. The 2025 record noted front brake discs were worn, so the current thickness of the discs and pads should be measured to ensure they are not nearing the minimum operating limit. Given the 2024 failure for all four tyres being near the legal limit, the tread depth and wear pattern of current tyres should be verified to ensure they were replaced with quality-appropriate parts.
