2016 Renault Trafic 1.6L Diesel · LX16 VRD

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass during the most recent inspection on 1 April 2026 at 69,642 miles. This result indicates that all mechanical and safety components met the minimum legal standards following a minor failure in early 2024. The lack of recorded advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that the owner has been proactive in addressing issues before they escalated into structural or mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. There is a notable surge in usage between February 2022 at 39,839 miles and February 2023 at 64,380 miles, where the vehicle covered over 24,000 miles in a single year. However, usage has slowed significantly since, with only 5,262 miles recorded between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This intermittent usage generally results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to a high-mileage fleet vehicle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the area that caused the failure on 11 January 2024 at 57,216 miles. Although the vehicle passed the following day, the specific defect was likely related to a consumable item such as a bulb, tyre, or minor leak. Given the vehicle's age and low annual mileage, the should also check for rubber degradation in suspension bushes and brake lines which occurs when vehicles sit stationary. Inspect the chassis for terminal corrosion, as older Renault Trafic models can be susceptible to structural rust regardless of the distance driven.
