2010 Renault Master 2.3L Diesel · ML60 AEU

The vehicle passed its latest MOT on 11 June 2026 at 302 786 miles, recording only minor advisories: front seat‑belt webbing frayed, rear fog‑lamp lens broken and a rear tyre showing slight cracking. The test follows a failure just nine days earlier, when the same vehicle exhibited seat‑belt damage, inoperative registration‑plate lamps, head‑lamp failures, a missing steering‑rack gaiter, split drive‑shaft boots, exposed tyre cords and corroded brake pipes. The rapid correction of those defects indicates an improving maintenance trend, yet the persistence of wear items signals ongoing neglect of key components. Mileage accumulation over the vehicle’s 16‑year life totals 302 786 miles, averaging roughly 19 000 miles per year—an elevated rate for a 2010 model. Recent MOT entries show modest mileage growth: from 295 505 miles in May 2024 to 302 786 miles in June 2026, a rise of about 7 300 miles over two years. Earlier records reveal larger yearly jumps, but the last few tests indicate a slowdown in usage. The history contains gaps, most notably the absence of an MOT between late 2021 and early 2023, reducing the continuity of the data. A prospective buyer should inspect the seat‑belt webbing for fraying, the rear fog‑lamp lens for cracks, and the rear tyre for perishing or cracking. Brake‑pipe corrosion is a recurring issue; the pipes should be examined for grease‑covered degradation and any signs of leakage. The drive‑shaft constant‑velocity boots must be checked for splits that could allow contamination, and the steering‑rack gaiter should be verified for integrity. Suspension components, particularly front lower arm bushes and anti‑roll bar linkage dust covers, show wear and should be assessed for excessive play. Brake pads need measurement against the 1.5 mm minimum, and the steering column’s lower universal joint should be tested for stiffness or noise. Finally, the ABS warning lamp and any steering‑rack free‑play should be verified, as these have appeared repeatedly in the record.
