2018 Renault Grand Scenic: petrol or diesel?
Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.
Petrol
71% pass first time (all 2018 cars: 83%)
Nothing stands out above the usual rate
348 MOTsSee the petrol guide ›
