2010 Renault Grand Scenic 1.5L Diesel · LS60 VGR

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance trend indicates a concerning decline in suspension integrity. While it passed its latest test in August 2025 at 105,387 miles, this followed a significant failure just one month prior. The presence of slight play in both the nearside anti-roll bar linkage and the offside lower suspension arm ball joint suggests that these components are reaching the end of their functional life and require proactive replacement. At 105,387 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 6,600 miles per year, which is consistent with low-to-moderate annual usage for its age. However, there is a notable increase in mileage of over 9,000 miles between August 2024 (94,241 miles) and July 2025 (104,668 miles). This increased use likely correlates with the emergence of mechanical faults and worn items observed during the most recent inspection period. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension assembly, as the anti-roll bar links and lower arm ball joints have been flagged for having play across the last three tests. The failure in July 2025 also revealed a steering rack inner joint issue and a fractured rear coil spring, which are significant safety concerns that must be verified as having been professionally repaired to standard rather than merely adjusted to pass the test. Additionally, the parking brake efficiency was noted to be below requirements in mid-2025, necessitating a check of the handbrake mechanism and cables. The recurring mention of a deteriorated registration plate and a damaged windscreen across multiple years suggests a迫 of attention to minor cosmetic and preventative maintenance, which should be considered when evaluating the overall of the vehicle.
