2019 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · AF05 BUD

The Renault Kangoo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 February 2026 at 71,432 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. A failed test on 6 February 2026 at the same mileage but with no defects listed suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, corrected within three days. Prior annual tests in February 2023, 2024, and 2025 all passed cleanly at 46,322, 53,235, and 61,932 miles respectively, showing no advisories or recurring wear items flagged across the record. The mileage pattern sits at roughly 10,200 miles per year against a seven-year-old vehicle, which is typical for the age. Annual increments of approximately 7,000 to 8,700 miles between 2023 and 2026 indicate consistent, moderate use with no sudden accumulation spikes or prolonged standing periods. The DVSA history is sparse in faults, with five consecutive February tests and only the anomalous February 2026 failure showing any irregularity, so the data gives little evidence of neglected consumable replacement or deferred mechanical work. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as these components accrue fatigue without triggering MOT advisories in a clean record. The February 2026 failure with zero defects recorded warrants confirmation that no latent issue such as corrosion or exhaust emissions was pending at the time. Verify the VIN and test certificate against the DVSA entry to rule out the anomaly being a clerical mismatch rather than a genuine retest.
