2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · CX16 UBG

The Renault Kadjar presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 January 2026 at 103,075 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, no recurring advisories, and no structural or mechanical concerns across the available history. Annual mileage has tracked close to the typical expectation for a 2016 vehicle. The records show 43,282 miles in January 2022, rising to 59,155 by January 2023, 74,469 in January 2024, 89,634 in January 2025, and 103,075 in January 2026. That equates to roughly 14,000 to 15,000 miles per year between tests, a modest uplift over the 10,308-mile annual average yet consistent and evenly spread. No standing periods or sudden accumulation gaps appear in the data. The clean sheet at every test suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables and emissions within limits. With no advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust, or corrosion, the MOT file alone gives no cause for alarm. A buyer should still verify in person that brake discs and calipers are free of lip wear or binding, and that subframe and sills show no latent rust the annual test missed. Tyres and wiper blades fall outside the recorded faults but warrant a visual check given the mileage. The documentary evidence supports a well-maintained, higher-than-average-use family SUV. Absence of repeated failures points to disciplined servicing rather than deferred repairs. Given the clean record, pre-purchase risk sits low, though a physical inspection remains sensible on any ten-year-old vehicle.
