2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · CU16 CFO

The 2016 Renault Kadjar presents a clean and stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT, conducted on 16 January 2026 at 75,538 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This outcome is consistent with the broader history, which shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults across multiple tests. The vehicle has moved from advisory-free passes to clean passes, indicating a resolving or consistently well-maintained condition rather than a worsening pattern. Mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the January 2025 test at 71,477 miles and the January 2026 test at 75,538 miles, the Kadjar covered 4,061 miles over twelve months. The earlier interval, from January 2024 at 68,147 miles to January 2025 at 71,477 miles, shows a similar pace of 3,330 miles. This works out to roughly 7,500 miles per year over the vehicle's life, which is unremarkable and suggests regular use without prolonged standing or excessive short trips that could accelerate wear. The MOT record contains no advisories, no failures for mechanical defects, and no repeated flags for suspension, braking, or structural corrosion. Two failed tests appear in the history, both in January 2024 and January 2025, yet neither lists any recorded defects, suggesting administrative or procedural retests rather than substantive faults. Buyers should still inspect the usual ten-year-old wear items in person. Check the condition of all four tyres for uneven wear that could hint at tracking or suspension bush degradation. Examine the brake discs and pads for lipping and thickness, and assess the exhaust system for corrosion, particularly around the flexi-joint and mounting points. Underneath, look for surface rust on subframes and suspension arms, as the Kadjar's platform is prone to corrosion in salted road conditions despite a clean MOT record.
