Our Verdict
This Renault Trafic is a strong candidate for buyers seeking a low-mileage commercial vehicle. The recent MOT history shows a clean record following a single failure in 2024.
Given the low mileage of 47,690 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure the 1.6L diesel engine has been maintained according to Renault's intervals. Low-mileage diesel engines can sometimes suffer from lack of use, so check for any signs of carbon buildup or issues with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF).
When negotiating, ask for proof of any recent major service items. While the MOT record is clean, the 2024 failure indicates a potential maintenance requirement was identified; confirm that the repair was documented by a garage. Check the condition of the tyres and brakes, as these are common wear items even on low-mileage vehicles.
As a 1598cc diesel, this Trafic is designed for efficiency, making it relatively economical for its class. You should expect moderate fuel costs depending on your payload and driving style.
Tax and insurance groups for this model vary based on specific trim and usage, but as a 2015 model, it should fall into a manageable bracket. Maintenance costs for Renault commercial vehicles are generally considered standard for the industry, though specialist diesel components can be more expensive if they require replacement.
Inspect the vehicle closely for any signs of heavy commercial use that might not be reflected in the low mileage, such as interior wear in the cab or damage to the load area. Since the 2024 MOT showed a failure that was corrected within 24 hours, ask specifically what that failure was to understand the vehicle's maintenance patterns.
Check the underside for signs of corrosion, which is a common area of concern for older vans. Additionally, test all electrical components, including lights and dashboard indicators, and ensure the diesel engine starts smoothly and idles without excessive vibration.
Registered in April 2015, this white 1.6L diesel Renault Trafic has covered 47,690 miles as of its last MOT in June 2025. This represents significantly lower mileage than typical for a van of this age. The MOT history is largely clear, with only one recorded failure in June 2024, which was resolved immediately.
No aggregate MOT data is currently available to provide a specific reliability rating for the Renault Trafic.
