2010 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · WK60 VXM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent inspection history reveals a concerning trend of reactive maintenance. While the car passed its latest test in February 2026 at 92,791 miles, it failed just one mile prior with multiple critical safety defects. The tester flagged the offside front track rod end with a serious risk of detachment and excessive play on the nearside, alongside a fractured offside front coil spring. These failures suggest that the owner only addresses mechanical components once they reach a point of imminent failure rather than performing preventative upkeep. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 92,791 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. The data shows a consistent usage pattern between 2023 and early 2026, with the vehicle covering roughly 10,400 miles in that three-year period. However, the low mileage has not protected the vehicle from age-related degradation. The presence of corroded springs and shock absorbers in 2023 and 2026 indicates that the components are suffering from environmental corrosion and material fatigue despite the low distance driven. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and steering geometry. The recurring issues with corroded coil springs and worn track rod ends suggest the entire suspension assembly may be nearing the end of its service life. Particular attention should be paid to the lower arm bushes, which were already noted for wear as far back as 2023. The nearside front tyre showed uneven wear on the outer edge in the most recent test, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn components that need to be verified to prevent premature tyre replacement.
