Renault Trafic T1400 (1990)
1990 Renault Trafic T1400
CarHunch is tracking 323 1990 Renault Trafic T1400 vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1990 Renault Trafic T1400 has a 0% first-time MOT pass rate among the 323 vehicles analysed—dramatically below the UK average of 80%—which is a serious red flag for any potential buyer. No dangerous defects were recorded and petrol models make up the vast majority of the cohort, but the complete absence of passes suggests these vehicles are either in extremely poor condition or largely unsuitable for road use by modern standards.
The zero failures and advisories recorded per vehicle indicate these Trafics are so old that MOT testers may simply be recording them as non-compliant rather than itemising faults in the usual way. If you're considering one of these vehicles, treat it as a restoration or parts-donor project only—none are passing current MOT standards, and you should expect significant investment to bring one anywhere near roadworthy.
We have 323 1990 Renault Trafic T1400 vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1990 Renault Trafic T1400
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
