2003 RENAULT KANGOO1.5L Diesel

The 2003 Renault Kangoo demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 7 May 2025 at 84,917 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. The DVSA recorded a duplicate failure on the same date with no faults listed, pointing to an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. The September 2015, September 2016, and September 2018 tests also passed cleanly, confirming an unbroken absence of advisories across the documented history. Mileage progression remains low for the vehicle's age. The test on 8 September 2015 at 67,603 miles preceded a 26 September 2016 reading of 74,004 miles, a 6,401-mile gain over thirteen months. By 22 September 2018 the odometer showed 76,786 miles, adding just 2,782 miles in two years. A six-year, seven-month gap then preceded the May 2025 test at 84,917 miles, reflecting an overall average near 3,692 miles per year. Such sparse, clean records imply previous owners exercised light use or permitted long storage periods without regular road activity. Despite the absence of flagged faults, a buyer should physically inspect age-related components that static records cannot capture. The tester noted no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant close examination for degradation from prolonged standing. Binding calipers may develop on a vehicle idle for extended spans. A buyer should verify exhaust emissions and overall underbody condition in person, as low mileage does not preclude rubber perishing or surface rust on a 23-year-old van.
