2015 Renault Scenic 1.5L Diesel · YK15 CSM

This 2015 Renault Scenic has covered only 50,166 miles, which is significantly lower than average for its age. While low mileage can suggest a vehicle that has seen light use, the MOT history reveals a concerning trend of neglect regarding basic maintenance and safety-critical components. The most alarming entry occurred in August 2024, when the vehicle failed its MOT due to missing wheel fixings on all four wheels. This indicates poor mechanical oversight and suggests the car may have been subjected to improper maintenance or amateur repair work. While the vehicle passed its most recent inspection in October 2025, the presence of an oil leak is a warning sign that the engine's condition is beginning to deteriorate. The overall trend shows a shift from a clean history in 2023 to more frequent advisories and a serious failure in 2024. The combination of perished tyres and damp shock absorbers noted in 2022, followed by the missing wheel bolts and current oil leak, suggests that the car has not been maintained to a high standard despite its low annual mileage. Low-mileage vehicles that sit for long periods can suffer from seized components and fluid degradation, and this history does not rule out the possibility of long-term storage or inconsistent servicing. Before purchasing, you must prioritise a thorough inspection of the engine bay to trace the source and severity of the oil leak. Check the condition of the tyres and suspension components, as the history of perished rubber and damp shock absorbers suggests these areas may require immediate investment.
