2008 Renault Kangoo Venture DCI SL 170 1.5L Heavy oil · FXZ 6725

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a string of clean passes in recent years. The most recent test conducted in December 2024 at 109,209 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a period of consistent maintenance since 2021, suggesting that the mechanical condition has remained reliable without recurring failures or escalating faults. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between May 2021 and December 2024, the vehicle covered 12,334 miles, representing a low-intensity usage profile. The brief failure in May 2022 at 101,523 miles was rectified immediately, with a pass just two days later at 101,592 miles. This specific interval suggests a minor consumable or lighting item failure that the owner was proactive to address, rather than a pattern of significant mechanical neglect. While the clean history is encouraging, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and the condition of the suspension components. Given the age of the Renault Kangoo, corrosion is a common concern on sills and mounting points which may not always trigger an MOT failure until severe. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs, as rubber components can perish and crack over time regardless of low mileage. Checking the brake lines for signs of weeping and binding calipers is also advisable to ensure the recent MOT passes reflect the current state of the braking system.
