2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · HV16 ABX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing an improving maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 71,674 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical and safety issues have been addressed. This follows a period of consecutive clean passes since 2023, suggesting that the current owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle following failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 50,410 miles and the September 2025 test at 71,674 miles, the car covered roughly 21,000 miles. This low rate of accumulation suggests light use, which typically reduces the strain on drivetrain components and heavy-duty wear items compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension and tyres, given the history of failures. The fractured offside rear coil spring noted in 2023 at 61,833 miles and the front tyres found worn to the legal limit in 2022 indicate that wheel geometry and suspension bushings may require regular monitoring. A buyer should check for uneven tyre wear which could signal underlying alignment issues or worn control arms. Additionally, while the wiper blade and tyre cord failures from 2019 and 2020 were minor consumable issues, verifying the current state of rubber seals and wiper assemblies remains prudent to ensure they have not degraded over time.
