2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · CX66 AOS

The 2016 Renault Kadjar demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with all five MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent September 2025 test at 58,506 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged across the decade-long history, suggesting the vehicle has been well cared for. The absence of advisories or failures implies no critical mechanical or safety risks, though low mileage relative to age warrants scrutiny of long-term storage effects. Mileage progression shows regular annual testing with steady accumulation: 24,777 (2021) to 58,506 (2025), averaging ~5,850 miles per year. This low usage rate, below the typical 7,000–8,000 miles for a 10-year-old vehicle, may reflect infrequent driving or prolonged inactivity. Gaps between tests are consistent, with no abrupt mileage spikes that might indicate heavy use or rushed maintenance. The clean record suggests no urgent wear on consumables or major systems, though prolonged idleness could affect rubber components or fluid integrity. A buyer should inspect for signs of corrosion, particularly in underbody areas prone to rust, and check suspension components like bushes and coil springs for wear, as these are often overlooked in MOTs. The exhaust system should be examined for leaks or deterioration, and brake discs assessed for warping, as these can develop without triggering MOT failures. Tyre tread and wiper blades, while not flagged here, may require closer attention if the vehicle was stored for extended periods. Overall, the MOT history supports reliability but does not replace a physical inspection for hidden issues.
