Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Based on MOT data from 1,448 vehicles, the 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI has a first-time MOT pass rate of 86.7%, indicating generally reliable for its class. Always check the full MOT history of any specific vehicle before buying.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

This 2022 Renault Master is essentially matching the UK average for MOT pass rates at 79.2%, so you're not looking at a reliability outlier in either direction. The dangerous defect rate sits at a low 5%, well below the threshold where we'd flag serious safety concerns as a buyer worry.

At nearly 50,000 miles median for a two-year-old van, these Master units are being properly worked, yet they're holding up reasonably well with just 0.25 failures per vehicle on average. The 0.8 advisories per test suggest minor wear items cropping up regularly rather than catastrophic issues—typical for a commercial workhorse. If you're considering one used, get a pre-purchase inspection focused on suspension and braking components, which tend to accumulate wear under regular duty cycles.

The 2022 Renault Master Lm35 Business+ Blue DCI passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (86.7% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
