2010 Renault GR Scenic Expr-N DCI 106 1.5L Diesel · WJ10 CBF

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pattern of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 17 January 2026 at 123,463 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a trend of clean sheets dating back to early 2023, suggesting a vehicle that is well-maintained or has had significant preventative work carried out. The mileage accumulation shows a notable shift in usage over the last three years. Between 26 January 2023 and 24 January 2024, the car covered only 306 miles, indicating a period of prolonged inactivity. Usage increased sharply thereafter, with 20,874 miles added by 25 January 2025 and a further 14,679 miles by the January 2026 test. While the overall average of 7,716 miles per year is typical for a 2010 model, the recent spike in mileage means wear on consumables has accelerated. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a sixteen year old Scenic and suggests the previous owner addressed issues before the official tests. A buyer should still manually inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these frequently perish on this chassis regardless of MOT outcomes. Check for signs of corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, as structural rust can sometimes be overlooked if the vehicle is cleaned prior to inspection. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads given the recent increase in annual mileage. The failure on 24 January 2023 is an anomaly as no defects were listed, which likely points to a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical fault. Focus the physical inspection on the drivetrain and clutch operation to ensure the recent high-mileage phase has not caused undue stress to the transmission.
