2006 Renault Trafic 1.9L Diesel · YA06 VFS

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 13 June 2025 at 140,693 miles, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the last two testing cycles suggests that the van has been maintained to a functional standard, although the immediate re-tests in both 2024 and 2025 indicate potential administrative or minor technical hiccups that were rectified within days of the initial failure. At 140,693 miles over a twenty-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 7,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial light goods vehicle. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent, with roughly 8,000 miles added between the July 2024 and June 2025 tests. There are no significant gaps in the recent history that would suggest long-term storage or periods of neglect, pointing toward a vehicle that has remained in regular, albeit moderate, service. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on areas often overlooked by standard MOT testing, specifically the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, which are prone to corrosion on aging Renault Trafic models. While the recent test history is clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a thorough check of the suspension bushes, ball joints, and track rod ends for play, as these components often wear gradually without triggering an immediate test failure. Verify the condition of the brake lines and fuel pipes for signs of surface oxidation, and confirm that the engine bay shows no evidence of oil leaks or cooling system neglect that might be masked by a clean pass certificate.
