2014 Renault Trafic SL27 Business + DCI 1.6L Diesel · VNZ 4419

Most recent MOT outcome The latest MOT on 24 November 2024 was a PASS at 163,629 mi. Eight days earlier the same vehicle recorded a FAIL (163,275 mi) but, unusually, no defects were listed. This suggests the failure was likely an administrative or clerical issue rather than a genuine safety problem. Pattern of results Over the past four years the van has shown a consistent record of passing its MOT, with only two isolated failures (June 2022 and November 2024) that also carried no defect details. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical faults or safety‑related defects in the supplied history. Trend assessment The pattern appears stable: the vehicle passes after each unexplained failure, and there are no new or worsening items noted. With no defects recorded, the trend does not suggest a deteriorating condition, though the unexplained failures do warrant a visual check to confirm they were indeed paperwork errors. Mileage versus age At 163,629 mi the 2014 van averages about 13,600 mi per year, which is higher than the typical UK commercial‑vehicle average (≈10,000 mi/yr). This level of use can accelerate wear on consumables such as brakes, tyres, suspension bushings, and the DCI engine’s timing chain and oil pump. However, the mileage alone does not prove neglect; it simply indicates the vehicle has been driven more heavily than a low‑mileage counterpart.
