2008 Renault Grand Scenic 1.9L Diesel · RY57 YYA

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on its recent MOT history. The most recent test conducted on January 5, 2026 at 142,676 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a streak of clean passes over the last five years. This stable trend suggests the current owner has maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures typically seen in cars of this age and mileage. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eighteen-year-old Grand Scenic, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between December 2021 and January 2026, the vehicle covered 18,199 miles, showing a steady usage profile without periods of prolonged neglect or sudden heavy accumulation. The gap between the December 2022 and January 2024 tests shows a slight delay in scheduling, but the annual mileage remained around the 5,000 mile mark, which helps prevent the degradation of seals and components associated with long-term standing. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should still focus their physical inspection on known weak points for the Renault Grand Scenic of this era. Given the age of the vehicle, inspect the structural integrity for corrosion on the rear subframe and sills, as these often do not appear on MOT records until they are significant. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber, as the consistent mileage suggests the car is used regularly, and these components are often the first to require replacement regardless of a clean MOT pass.
