2021 Renault Master LM35 B-Ness Energy DCI 2.3L Diesel · RO71 XLD

The most recent MOT test for this Renault Master was passed on 09 December 2025, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. The maintenance trend appears relatively stable, as there are no recorded major failures or structural integrity issues. However, the transition from a missing marker light advisory in early 2025 to a distorted wheel advisory in late 2025 suggests that attention is shifting from simple electrical components to more significant aspects of the running gear and wheel assembly. With a recorded mileage of 44,084 miles over approximately five years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 8,817 miles per year. This is a moderate usage profile for a commercial van, suggesting it has not been subjected to the extreme high-mileage wear typical of heavy-duty long-distance haulage, but it has also not been sitting idle for extended periods. While this mileage is generally beneficial for the engine and drivetrain, it means that components such as suspension bushes, seals, and rubber hoses may be more susceptible to age-related degradation and perishing rather than purely mechanical wear from high mileage. A primary concern for a prospective buyer is the advisory regarding the slightly distorted offside rear inner road wheel. This defect can manifest as a noticeable vibration or rhythmic thumping through the chassis, particularly when travelling at higher speeds. You must inspect this wheel closely for any signs of impact damage and check the associated tyre for irregular or uneven wear patterns. A distorted rim can also place undue stress on the wheel bearings and suspension components, so listen for any unusual clunking or grinding noises from the rear axle during your test drive. In addition to the wheel issue, you should monitor the windscreen damage mentioned in the minor defect report, as small chips can quickly expand due to thermal expansion and contraction. Given the vehicle's age and usage, it is also prudent to inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking, which indicates rubber perishing from age. Check the brake discs for heavy corrosion or signs of binding calipers, which can occur if the vehicle has spent time stationary. Finally, ensure that the service history confirms that essential time-sensitive maintenance, such as brake fluid replacement and coolant refreshes, has been carried out according to the manufacturer's intervals.
