2017 Renault Kadjar 1.2L Petrol · DV17 OFH

The vehicle achieved a clean MOT at its most recent test on 2026-03-19 at 63,025 miles, with only minor issues regarding child seat fitting and a nail in the offside rear tyre, both of which are easily rectified. This represents a significant improvement from the 2024-03-18 failure, where the tester flagged multiple critical brake and tyre defects, including front and rear brake pads wearing below 1.5 mm thickness, rear brake discs worn but not excessively, and two rear tyres that were either worn close to the legal limit or damaged. The 2025-03-21 failure, which occurred five miles prior to the second 2024 test, was attributed to a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system. The maintenance history indicates a recurring pattern of neglected brake pad replacement and tyre care, suggesting the previous owner prioritised cost-cutting over safety. The vehicle's low annual mileage of approximately 7,000 miles per year implies minimal component wear, but the brake system requires immediate inspection. A buyer should conduct a thorough visual check of the brake discs and pads, paying particular attention to the rear assembly, alongside inspecting the suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of premature deterioration.
