2011 Renault Grand Scenic 1.6L Petrol · HV11 BYP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership approach. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 53,238 miles resulted in a pass, the vehicle failed immediately prior due to a nearside stop lamp and both front tyres. This pattern suggests that the owner only addresses defects once they result in an MOT failure, rather than performing preventative maintenance between annual tests. The mileage profile shows very low usage for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,50 miles annually. Between January 2024 at 52,321 miles and January 2025 at 52,722 miles, the car covered only 400 miles. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the accelerated degradation of rubber-based components due to age and lack of movement, which is evident in the recurring suspension issues noted in the record. A buyer must inspect the front suspension thoroughly, as the January 2025 test flagged both nearside and offside front arm bushes for cracking and perishing. Although these were noted as advisories at that time, the subsequent failure of a nearside front drive shaft CV boot in the same period indicates that rubber components in the front end are failing systematically. The recurring mention of front tyres worn on the edge across multiple years also points to a persistent alignment issue or worn shock absorbers that require attention to prevent premature tyre wear.
