2013 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · KV13 YJP

This Renault Scenic presents a clean and stable MOT history, with the most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 82,141 miles showing no defects—an outcome repeated across all five recorded tests since 20 September 2021 . The absence of advisories or failures over this period suggests consistent upkeep, particularly in critical areas like brakes, suspension, and emissions. No recurring issues have emerged to indicate neglect or progressive mechanical degradation, though the lack of advisories could also reflect minimal scrutiny of wear items like tyres or wiper blades beyond MOT thresholds. The vehicle’s compliance with roadworthiness standards remains unbroken, but the buyer should treat this as a baseline rather than comprehensive assurance of long-term reliability. The mileage accumulation reflects 6,319 miles per year on average, aligning with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Notably, the gap between 46,284 miles (3 October 2022) and 47,767 miles (20 September 2023) —a span of 15 months —suggests a period of lighter use or potential inactivity, though the subsequent tests show steady mileage growth without anomalies. There are no red flags in the data to imply abuse or irregular servicing patterns, but the buyer should verify if the mileage recorded matches the vehicle’s actual usage, particularly if discrepancies exist between the odometer and service history. Given the absence of defects, priority should be placed on inspecting components not routinely checked during MOTs. The suspension—including coil springs, bushings, and ball joints —should be assessed for wear, as these are not always flagged unless visibly damaged. Brakes, while passing inspection, warrant closer examination: check for binding calipers, uneven disc wear, or fluid leaks , as these can develop between tests. Structural integrity is less of a concern given the clean history, but sill corrosion, exhaust mounting points, and underbody rust should be scrutinised, especially if the vehicle has spent time in damp conditions. Tyre condition and tread depth must be verified beyond MOT minimums, as the record offers no insight into intermediate wear. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions controls —though compliant—should be listened to for rattles or unusual noises, which could indicate loose or deteriorating components.
