Our Verdict
A reasonable option for those seeking a
Focus on the service history for the 1.5L diesel engine, specifically verifying regular oil and filter changes. Given the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the suspension components, particularly the ball joints, even though they have not yet appeared as a failure on this specific vehicle's record.
Verify that the offside front tyre and headlamp alignment issues identified in the June 2024 MOT were corrected. Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle and any upcoming maintenance requirements typical for a car of this vintage.
The 1461cc diesel engine is geared towards fuel efficiency, which helps offset the costs of running a larger family vehicle. Tax and insurance groups for the Scenic are generally competitive for its class, though diesel charges may apply depending on the specific emissions standard of this 2015 model.
Annual costs will be driven by diesel fuel prices and the maintenance needs of a decade-old vehicle. Expect typical wear-and-tear costs for tyres and brakes, alongside standard annual servicing.
Inspect the tyres, specifically the offside front, to ensure the wear noted in the June 2024 MOT has been resolved with a quality replacement. Check the headlamp operation and ensure the beam aim is correct, as this was a recorded failure point.
During a test drive, listen for knocks or clicks from the front suspension; while this car has not failed on them, ball joints are a top failure reason for the Scenic model across 52,360 analysed vehicles. Check all exterior red paintwork for fading or clear-coat failure common in vehicles of this age.
This red 2015 Renault Scenic diesel has covered 71,557 miles as of its last recorded test in June 2024. Its MOT history shows a consistent record, including clean passes in 2022 and 2023, and a minor failure in 2024 related to tyre wear and headlamp alignment.
The Scenic has a 72.6% average MOT pass rate, with headlamps, ball joints, and tyres being the most common failure points.
