2013 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · LF63 ADX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection on October 27, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed its initial test by only a few miles before passing on the subsequent retest. This suggests the previous owner exercised reactive maintenance habits, addressing faults only when necessitated by the annual testing requirement rather than following a preventative service schedule. At 105,179 miles, this 13-year-old Renault Trafic averages approximately 8,100 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. The mileage accumulation shows steady annual use, with roughly 9,000 miles covered between September 2023 and October 2024, and another 8,900 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This consistent usage indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber seals and corrosion of brake components. The lack of recorded advisories across the last three tests is unusual for a high-mileage van, yet the recurring retest failures warrant a closer look. A buyer should specifically inspect the components that caused the two most recent failures, such as lighting, bulbs, or minor leaks, to ensure they were properly rectified. Given the age and mileage, a physical inspection of the structural integrity for corrosion on the chassis and the condition of the suspension bushes is essential, as these areas are common points of wear that often escape a standard MOT advisory if the test is performed superficially.
