RENAULT KADJAR DYNAMIQUE NAV DCI2016 · 1.5L DIESEL

This 2016 Renault Kadjar presents a stable and well-maintained roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT on 9 December 2025 at 103,358 miles passed with zero defects, indicating no immediate mechanical or structural concerns at that time. The trend across the entire history is consistently clean, with no advisories or failures recorded in any of the five tests, suggesting diligent upkeep by previous owners. The mileage pattern is notably uneven. Between June 2022 and September 2023, the car covered 13,388 miles in roughly 15 months, a rate of approximately 10,700 miles per year. However, the gap between the September 2023 test and the November 2024 test shows only 12,239 miles added over 12 months, a drop to around 10,200 miles annually. The most recent interval, from November 2024 to December 2025, saw just 10,530 miles added over 13 months, equating to roughly 9,700 miles per year. This declining annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have been used less frequently in its most recent period, potentially spending extended time stationary, which can affect tyre flat-spotting, brake surface corrosion, and battery health. Despite the flawless MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection. The diesel particulate filter and exhaust emissions system warrant attention, given the Kadjar dCi's sensitivity to short journeys and DPF clogging, even if emissions passed the MOT. Suspension components, including front lower arm bushes and rear trailing arm bushes, should be checked for perishing, as these are common wear items on this platform beyond 80,000 miles. Brake discs and pads should be measured for wear, particularly if the car has been sitting for long periods, as surface corrosion can develop on rotors and pads even with low use. Tyre condition and age should be verified, since rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. Finally, inspect the underbody and subframe for any signs of corrosion, as structural integrity remains critical on a ten-year-old vehicle regardless of its clean test history.
