2020 Renault Trafic LH30 Bness Energy DCI 2.0L Diesel · SF70 ALU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-24 at 24,672 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. The single failed test in 2023-09-27 at 13,349 miles was recorded as failed but with no defects listed, which may reflect procedural errors or minor non-critical issues. Overall, the absence of recurring mechanical faults in the last three tests implies the vehicle has remained roadworthy, though the 2023 failure warrants scrutiny for potential unresolved concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 24,672 miles over six years equates to approximately 4,112 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like seals, batteries, and suspension bushes. The MOT tests are spaced roughly 12 months apart, with no gaps exceeding 14 months, suggesting regular compliance. However, the 2023-09-27 failure at 13,349 miles—just five days before a subsequent pass at the same mileage—raises questions about the accuracy of that test outcome. A buyer should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of dry rot in rubber components, such as suspension bushes or brake hoses, given the low mileage and potential inactivity. The absence of recorded defects does not preclude hidden issues, particularly in the exhaust system or braking mechanism, which may not trigger immediate alerts. Structural integrity should also be verified, as low mileage does not inherently guarantee corrosion resistance. Focus on fluid levels, battery condition, and steering alignment, as these can degrade during periods of limited use.
