2013 Renault Scenic 1.6L Petrol · LR13 EXN

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean result in its most recent inspection. The test on 20 June 2023 at 97,387 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and safety issues identified in previous years were successfully rectified. Given that the last test occurred nearly three years ago, the vehicle is significantly overdue for its MOT, which necessitates an immediate inspection to verify its current condition. The mileage pattern is consistent with a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. The record shows a notable gap of 15,061 miles between March 2021 and June 2022, followed by another 6,677 miles between June 2022 and June 2023. This relatively low annual usage suggests light travel, which typically limits wear on drivetrain components and rubber-based suspension parts, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to fluid degradation or brake fluid corrosion. While the 2023 pass was clean, the failures in both 2021 and 2022 highlight a vehicle that required active intervention to meet minimum standards. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of failure on this model at this age. Because the car has not been tested in three years, the inspector must also check for seized brake calipers, perished tyres, and structural corrosion on the underbody that may have developed since the last recorded entry.
