2022 Renault Trafic SL28 Sport Blue DCI 2.0L Diesel · WF22 OOB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the MOT history reveals a reactive maintenance pattern rather than proactive care. While it passed the test on 31 March 2025 at 73,723 miles, this followed a failure just two days prior. The tester flagged critical damage to both the nearside and offside rear tyres alongside significant wear on the nearside front, indicating that the owner only addressed safety issues once they reached the point of legal failure. At 73,723 miles over four years, this Trafic averages over 18,000 miles per annum. This high rate of usage is consistent with heavy commercial application, which accelerates the degradation of suspension components and braking systems. The remarkably short interval between the failure on 29 March and the pass on 31 March suggests the tyres were replaced quickly to clear the test, but the high mileage implies the vehicle undergoes significant mechanical stress between annual inspections. A buyer must personally inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment, as the nearside front tyre was noted as worn on the edge during the 2025 test. This often indicates misaligned tracking or worn control arm bushes which will lead to further premature tyre failure. Given the high mileage and the history of neglected tyre condition, a thorough check of the brake discs for thinning and the calipers for binding is essential to ensure the system has not been overworked under heavy loads.
