2017 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · EU67 XLM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 92,715 miles shows the vehicle passed only after rectifying failures related to lighting bulbs and perished tyre rubber. While the immediate status is pass, the trend of multiple failures suggests that mechanical issues are often only addressed when they threaten a legal test result. At 92,715 miles, this nine-year-old Renault Kangoo has averaged approximately 10,300 miles per year. This figure aligns closely with typical usage patterns for a light commercial vehicle. The data shows a significant gap in mileage accumulation between December 2024 and January 2025, where only one mile was recorded between two separate tests. However, the jump of 7,414 miles recorded between January 2025 and January 2026 indicates a return to regular annual use over the final recorded period, which puts consistent strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer must physically inspect the nearside front drive shaft area, as the December 2024 failure flagged a split CV boot and a worn joint likely to fail. Although this was presumably repaired to pass, the front oil leak noted during that same test requires monitoring to ensure it does not escalate into a significant leak. The previous failure of electronic stability control and supplementary restraint system warning lamps in late 2024 should be verified to ensure these faults were properly cleared, as they represent critical safety-related systems. The presence of cracking and perishing tyres in early 2026 indicates that the rubber components are reaching the end of their lifespan regardless of tread depth. A thorough check of all four tyres for sidewall damage is necessary. Given the history of headlamp failures and aim issues, the buyer should also check the wiring loom and bulb housings to ensure there are no intermittent electrical faults that could lead to recurring lighting failures.
