2022 Renault Trucks Master 35 Xlwb 2.3L Diesel · PF22 EEO

The most recent MOT carried out on 24 April 2026 returned a full pass with no recorded defects, mirroring the clean result from the previous test on 2 May 2025. This uninterrupted pass record suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard over the past year, with no emerging safety‑critical faults identified by the DVSA examiner. While a clean MOT does not guarantee the absence of latent wear, the consistency of passing results indicates that the owner has kept up with the statutory service and inspection requirements. At 57,379 miles on a vehicle first registered in 2022, the Master has averaged roughly 14,300 miles per annum, which is above the typical commercial‑van benchmark of around 10‑12 000 miles per year. The relatively high utilisation points to a vehicle that has seen regular on‑road duty rather than prolonged periods of storage. Consequently, wear items such as tyre tread, brake pads, clutch plates and suspension bushings are likely to be approaching the latter stages of their service life, and the drivetrain components will have accumulated a significant amount of operational stress. Prospective buyers should give particular attention to the condition of the tyre sidewalls and tread depth, as high mileage combined with the weight of a XLWB chassis can accelerate tyre ageing and heat‑induced cracking, especially if the vehicle has been subject to frequent heavy loads. Inspect the wheel bearings for any play, listen for low‑frequency hums or growls that may indicate bearing wear, and check the brake discs for scoring, rust spots or excessive thickness variation, which can cause shudder under heavy braking. The suspension should be examined for worn coil springs, cracked or perished rubber bushings, and any audible clunks when the vehicle is driven over bumps, as these components bear the brunt of the increased mileage and payload demands. Given the vehicle’s four‑year age, a thorough check of time‑sensitive items is also prudent. Verify the health of the 12 V battery, looking for signs of sulfation or reduced cranking power, and consider a load test if the battery is more than three years old. All engine and transmission fluids should be sampled for colour and viscosity, as oil degradation can occur even with regular changes if the service intervals have been stretched. Finally, confirm that the service book contains stamps for oil changes, filter replacements and any major service milestones; a complete record will give confidence that the high‑mileage vehicle has been kept within the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule and will be less likely to suffer unexpected failures after purchase.
