2014 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · LG14 FPN

The 2014 Renault Trafic presents a stable and unblemished maintenance trajectory, culminating in a clean pass on 10 September 2025 at 57,512 miles. The absence of recorded defects across the entire MOT history indicates a vehicle that has consistently met structural and mechanical standards without requiring remedial work. A failed test occurred on 20 September 2024 at 54,270 miles, yet the record explicitly notes no defects, suggesting an administrative or procedural issue rather than a mechanical failure. The subsequent pass just seven days later at 54,318 miles confirms the vehicle's ongoing roadworthiness, reflecting diligent upkeep by the previous keeper. Evaluating the mileage accumulation against the vehicle's age reveals exceptionally low usage, averaging roughly 4,793 miles annually. Between the September 2022 test at 48,357 miles and the September 2023 test at 51,345 miles, the van covered 2,988 miles. This increased slightly to 2,973 miles over the following twelve months leading to the September 2024 tests. The final year saw a marginal uptick to 3,194 miles before the most recent September 2025 test. This consistent, low-mileage pattern points to light commercial or domestic use rather than high-frequency fleet duties, though prolonged stationary periods inherent to such low annual mileage can pose their own risks to consumable components. Despite the pristine MOT record, a prospective buyer must physically inspect the vehicle for issues that MOTs do not always capture, particularly those associated with low-mileage vehicles standing idle. Check the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion and binding, a common issue when a van sits unused for extended periods. Inspect the tyres closely for sidewall cracking and date stamps, as rubber degrades with age regardless of tread depth. Examine the underbody and suspension mounts for corrosion, paying particular attention to the rear suspension bushes and coil springs, which can deteriorate on lightly used Trafics that frequently run unladen. Verify the exhaust system for leaks and assess the structural integrity of the load floor and sills, ensuring no hidden corrosion compromises the chassis.
