2009 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · LM59 FPJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 16 January 2024 at 156,285 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a failure on the previous day which was immediately rectified, suggesting the owner is proactive in addressing compliance issues to maintain legality. The lack of recurring advisories across the last three passes indicates that the vehicle has maintained a high mechanical standard during its recent operation. At 156,285 miles over 17 years, the Renault has averaged approximately 9,200 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial van of this age. There is a notable gap in records between the October 2021 test and the January 2023 test, during which the vehicle covered 6,985 miles. Since the January 2024 inspection, the vehicle has not undergone a formal test, meaning the current MOT is over two years old. The consistent mileage accumulation suggests a regular use pattern rather than long periods of standing or heavy-duty commercial cycles that would overwhelm the drivetrain and suspension components. While the records are clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity and wear items common to this age and model. Focus on the chassis sills and suspension mounting points for deep corrosion, as rust often develops on older Trafics. The buyer should also check for binding calipers and inspect the suspension bushes for per, as the MOT record does not capture these minor mechanical failures. Given the time elapsed since the last test, verifying the condition of the brake fluid and the exhaust system integrity is essential to ensure no significant degradation has occurred since the January 2024 certification.
