2011 Renault Master 2.2L Diesel · NU11 BVT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward increasing mechanical wear and component degradation. While it passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 116,760 miles, the tester identified multiple advisories that were absent in the previous year. The transition from a clean record in October 2024 to a list of suspension and brake issues suggests that the vehicle is entering a phase where age-related components require proactive replacement. The recorded mileage of 116,760 miles over fifteen years averages to approximately 7,800 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a commercial of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 7,519 miles recorded between October 2024 and November 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the van has not sat stationary for long periods, though the sudden failure in March 2024 due to a split CV boot indicates that the mileage may involve heavy loads or a lack of preventative inspection of rubber components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the 2025 test flagged both nearside and offside front suspension arm bushes as worn. These issues, combined with noisy top mounts reported in 2023, indicate the front end is reaching the end of its lifecycle. The corroded offside front brake pipe is a specific concern; the presence of grease or material on the pipe often indicates an attempt to hide corrosion, necessitating a close look at the brake line integrity. The tyres also require immediate attention as the 2025 record noted three separate tyres with cracking or perishing, suggesting the rubber compound is failing due to age rather than tread depth. Given the previous failure for a split CV boot on the nearside front, the buyer should check all rubber boots for grease leakage to prevent premature drivetrain failure. The structural integrity remains unflagged in the recent records, but the recurring issues with bushes and bushings suggest the vehicle requires frequent mechanical oversight at this stage.
