2010 Renault Master 2.3L Diesel · SM10 WLR

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean records to the emergence of component wear. The most recent test in April 2024 at 131,488 miles identified a fault on front brake discs which were pitted and scored. This follows the 2023 test which flagged a corroded offside front brake pipe and a worn nearside front suspension arm bush. While the vehicle has passed all inspections, the appearance of these mechanical issues suggests that the van is entering a phase of increased age-related degradation. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a sixteen-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per year. Between March 2020 and April 2024, the vehicle covered 7,594 miles, representing a steady and predictable usage profile rather than heavy-duty cycles. The lack of recorded defects between 2020 and 2022 suggests a period of good condition, though the recent accumulation of roughly 1,000 miles per year indicates the vehicle is being moved regularly enough to prevent dry-corrosion issues. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front braking system and suspension assembly. The previous report of a corroded brake pipe and pitted discs indicates that the hydraulic lines and friction surfaces are susceptible to environmental damage or neglected maintenance. Particular attention should be paid to the nearside front suspension arm for excessive movement, as the bush was already flagged in 2023. Given the age of the Renault Master, a check of the chassis for structural corrosion is also essential, as no such issues were specifically highlighted in the recent MOT advisories.
