Our Verdict
A reasonable option for a used commercia
Focus on the service history of the 1598cc diesel engine, specifically looking for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, which are critical maintenance items for this engine variant. Since the vehicle has a history of failing on basic consumables, verify the current condition of all four tyres and the remaining brake pad life to ensure they aren't nearing the limit again.
Negotiate based on the age of the current tyres and the evidence of the repairs carried out in December 2025. Ensure that the track rod end replacements were performed by a professional and that the vehicle has had a subsequent wheel alignment to prevent premature tyre wear.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Trafic offers a balance of power and efficiency typical for its class. Annual costs will include diesel fuel, commercial vehicle tax, and insurance, which varies significantly based on the driver's profile and intended use.
Maintenance costs for a van with over 110,000 miles are typically higher due to the need for periodic suspension and braking system refreshes. Budget for regular oil changes and the eventual replacement of wear items as seen in the MOT history.
Pay close attention to the front suspension and steering; the December 2025 failure noted excessive play in both the nearside and offside front track rod end ball joints. Check that these have been replaced and that there is no remaining play in the steering rack.
Additionally, inspect the front brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these were specific failure points in 2023 and 2025. Check for uneven wear on the front tyres, which could indicate that the track rod end issues were not fully resolved with a proper alignment.
This 2016 white Renault Trafic has recorded 110,036 miles. The MOT history indicates a vehicle that has been tested regularly, with failures in December 2023 and December 2025 relating to tyres, brakes, and track rod ends. It most recently passed its MOT in December 2025 with no defects recorded.
No aggregate data is available for this model, but this specific vehicle's history shows typical wear-and-tear failures consistent with its age and commercial usage.
