The Renault Trafic is a firm favourite among UK tradesmen — spacious, dependable, and available at excellent prices on the used market. If you're searching for a used Renault Trafic in the West Midlands, Midland Cars Online in Cradley Heath are your local specialist.
Why Tradesmen Choose the Renault Trafic
The Trafic has been a workhorse of British trades for over two decades. It shares its platform with the Vauxhall Vivaro and Nissan Primastar — a proven combination that means parts are widely available and mechanics know them well. The current generation brought significant improvements in refinement, load space, and fuel economy.
What makes the Trafic particularly attractive on the used market is value. You get a genuinely capable medium van — comfortable cab, solid build, good payload — at a price that's typically lower than equivalent Ford or VW alternatives.
What to Check When Buying a Used Trafic
- Twin turbo system — the 1.6 dCi twin turbo can be sensitive; check for smooth power delivery
- Service history — the dCi engines need regular oil changes to stay healthy
- Gearbox — check for smooth, precise changes especially on higher mileage examples
- Load area floor — check for damage and wear around the loading lip
- AdBlue system — Euro 6 models have it; ensure no warning lights present
SWB vs LWB Trafic — Which Is Right for You?
The SWB suits most trades perfectly — manoeuvrable in tight urban areas, easy to park, and still carries an impressive load. The LWB gives you significantly more load length — ideal for plumbers, electricians and joiners carrying long materials regularly. Both variants are available with the Sport trim which adds a sportier exterior and better cab comfort.
