Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 4 December 2025 at 135,644 miles, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. The record shows a consistent pattern of passing the annual inspection without any recorded advisories or defects over the last three years. While the vehicle failed its initial test on 3 December 2025 and 4 December 2024, the immediate re-tests suggest these were likely administrative or minor issues rather than significant mechanical failures, as no specific faults were logged by the testing station. The recorded mileage of 135,644 over a fourteen-year period averages approximately 9,689 miles per annum, which aligns with standard usage expectations for a vehicle of this type. The data shows a notable increase in annual usage between December 2023 and December 2024, where the odometer climbed by nearly 19,000 miles, followed by a more moderate accumulation of roughly 13,700 miles in the most recent twelve-month cycle. This consistent activity suggests the vehicle has remained in regular operation rather than suffering from long-term storage, which often leads to seized components or perished rubber seals. Despite the clean MOT history, the age and high mileage of this Renault Kangoo necessitate a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and drivetrain. You should focus your attention on the structural integrity of the sills and subframes, as corrosion is common in older French commercial vehicles. Inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of fatigue or leaking fluid, as these components frequently reach the end of their service life at this mileage. Check the brake discs and pads for uneven wear patterns, and verify that the parking brake holds firmly on an incline, as these are critical areas that may not always trigger a failure during a basic MOT test.
