2010 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · ML10 MPZ

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 28 November 2025 at 85,302 miles passed with no defects recorded, maintaining a clean sheet for several consecutive inspections. This follows a period of consistent passes since the December 2022 failure, indicating that the previous owner successfully addressed any initial issues and maintained the vehicle in accordance with DVSA safety and emissions standards. The mileage pattern is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with roughly 13,000 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 12,390 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests in older vehicles can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals if the car sits for extended periods. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of components affected by low-mileage use. The inspector should check for perished suspension bushes and split tyre boots, which often fail with age rather than distance travelled. Given the vehicle's age, a close look at structural corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points is necessary to ensure the integrity remains sound despite the lack of recorded failures. Additionally, verify the brake discs for pitting or scoring, as low-frequency use can lead to surface rust that affects the rotors.
