2008 Renault Grand Scenic 1.9L Diesel · HV08 VTM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent maintenance trend over the last two years. The most recent test on 29 September 2025 at 121,482 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a failure just two miles prior. This pattern suggests the current owner is proactive in addressing minor compliance issues immediately to ensure the vehicle remains legal. The lack of advisories on the latest two passes indicates that the car is currently in a clean state regarding regulatory standards. Mileage accumulation remains consistent with the vehicle's eighteen-year age, averaging approximately 6,750 miles per year. The data shows a steady increase of 7,634 miles between September 2023 and October 2024, followed by another 3,368 miles between October 2024 and September 2025. This regular usage pattern prevents the vehicle from sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for maintaining rubber seals and preventing fluid degradation. The intervals between tests are predictable, reflecting a vehicle that is capable of consistent operation. While the MOT history is clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of high-wear components typical for this model and mileage bracket. Given the age and 121,000-mile mark, the front suspension wishbone arm bushes and coil springs should be checked for tearing or fatigue. Because the record does not show previous brake advisories, the buyer should manually inspect the calipers for binding or uneven wear on the discs. A close look at the structural integrity of the sills and rear mounting points is essential, as surface corrosion often develops in hidden areas on older Renault vehicles before it becomes an MOT failure point.
