2017 Renault Grand Scenic 1.5L Diesel · M1 BYM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in December 2025 at 66,608 miles passed despite advisories for worn bushes on both front inner suspension arm pins and thin rear brake pads. While the vehicle passed the inspection, these indicators suggest that the suspension and braking components are reaching the end of their service life and require attention to prevent future failures. At 66,608 miles over nine years, the car has averaged approximately 7,400 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a family-oriented vehicle. The mileage progression shows steady annual accumulation, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between November 2023 and December 2024, and another 10,600 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle is not sitting stationary for long periods, though the low mileage relative to age can mask aging rubber-based components. A buyer must closely inspect the front suspension geometry, as the records from 2022 to 2025 consistently highlight uneven tyre wear on the inner edges and worn arm bushes. This often points to alignment issues or worn ball joints that could compromise handling if ignored. The braking system also requires a thorough check, with thin pads flagged on both the front in 2022 and the rear in 2025. Furthermore, the history of perishing tyres and those reaching the legal limit in 2023 indicates that previous owners may have neglected basic consumable maintenance until an MOT failure was imminent.
