2008 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · SW08 ADO

The Renault Trafic presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 25 June 2025 at 208,779 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared the June 2025 test with no defects logged, though the same-day failure on 25 June 2025 with no defects recorded points to an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior passes in June 2024 at 203,187 miles and June 2023 at 198,669 miles also carried no advisories, and the June 2023 failure likewise showed no defects, suggesting the earlier failure was procedural rather than a genuine roadworthiness concern. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for an 18-year-old van, averaging roughly 11,600 miles per year against the 208,779 miles recorded. The gap between the June 2023 test at 198,669 miles and the June 2024 test at 203,187 miles shows 4,518 miles covered, then 5,592 miles to the June 2025 figure of 208,779 miles. No rapid accumulation or prolonged standing is evident from the sparse but clean annual entries. The record lacks intermediate tests, so wear between annual inspections remains undocumented. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as the MOT history records no advisories that would flag such wear. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant close examination, particularly on a 2008 panel van exposed to eighteen winters. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass pairs in both 2023 and 2025 imply the seller or tester rectified a non-mechanical presentation matter quickly, but the absence of logged faults offers no evidence of deferred consumable upkeep such as tyres or wiper blades.
