2015 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · HT65 AHX

This 2015 Renault Kangoo presents a stable and recently confirmed roadworthiness position. The most recent MOT, conducted on 20 January 2026 at 214,595 miles, passed with zero defects recorded, indicating that all previously flagged wear items have been addressed. The maintenance trend over the last three years is clearly improving. A cluster of advisories and a failure in late 2023 at 179,928 miles, covering worn front brake discs, play in both front suspension arm ball joints, and play in the offside steering rack inner joint, was fully resolved by the December 2024 test at 198,586 miles, where only minor wear items remained. The January 2026 clean sheet confirms the current keeper has brought the vehicle to a well-serviced standard. The mileage accumulation is notably high for an eleven-year-old vehicle. Between the December 2022 test at 167,250 miles and the January 2026 test at 214,595 miles, the Kangoo covered 47,345 miles in just over three years, averaging roughly 15,500 miles annually during that period. The earlier record shows a similar pace, with 16,678 miles added between December 2022 and November 2023. This sustained high-mileage use places accelerated demand on consumable components, particularly brake discs, suspension bushes, and steering linkages, which is consistent with the pattern of wear items flagged in the 2023 and 2024 tests. A buyer should focus the physical inspection on the front suspension and steering geometry. The repeated advisories for suspension arm ball joint play and a damaged steering rack gaiter in 2024 suggest these components have seen significant use. Check the nearside and offside front lower arms, track rod ends, and inner rack joints for any residual play or fresh deterioration. Examine the front brake discs and pads closely, as the 2023 advisory for worn and pitted discs indicates a history of aggressive or sustained braking demand. Inspect the offside front tyre for uneven edge wear, a recurring issue flagged in 2024 that can point to misalignment or worn suspension bushes. Given the high mileage, a thorough underbody inspection for corrosion, especially around suspension mounting points and the exhaust system, is advisable to confirm the structural integrity remains sound.
