2017 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · CU17 OMB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a shift from reactive to more proactive upkeep. The most recent test in October 2025 at 82,106 miles was a pass, despite the presence of a child seat obstructing a full inspection of the adult seat belt. This follows a period in early 2023 where the vehicle failed due to significant brake system neglect. Since that failure, the mechanical trend appears stable with no new failures appearing in subsequent tests. At 82,106 miles over nine years, the Kadjar averages approximately 9,123 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a modern SUV. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 8,600 miles covered between the October 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 8,000 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing which often causes seal degradation and component corrosion. A buyer should focus physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The failure in January 2023 at 56,547 miles highlighted low brake fluid levels, worn pads on all axles, and pitted front discs. While the October 2023 test noted the discs were slightly lipped, this suggests the front brakes were nearing the end of their service life again. Additionally, the October 2024 advisory flagged an offside front tyre worn specifically on the edge, which may indicate an alignment issue or uneven suspension wear that should be verified to prevent premature tyre replacement.
