Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those needing a
When inspecting this 1.5 dCi Kangoo, check the recent MOT history to ensure all previous advisories, such as the 2023 shock absorber misting, have been addressed or haven't worsened. Since the most recent failure was a simple bulb issue, verify that the lighting system is now fully functional.
Ask the seller for any documentation regarding the shock absorbers mentioned in the 2023 MOT. Given the diesel engine and mileage, you should also check for any signs of fluid leaks or excessive smoke, though no such issues were noted in the MOT records provided.
As a 1461cc diesel, this Kangoo is designed for efficiency, particularly for longer journeys or heavy loads. Tax and insurance groups for this model typically sit in the mid-range, making it an economical choice for small business owners or tradespeople.
Annual running costs will be heavily influenced by your annual mileage. Maintenance costs for Renault Kangoo models are generally predictable, though you should budget for routine diesel engine servicing and tyre replacements given the current mileage of 112,456.
Focus your inspection on the suspension components. The 2023 MOT record noted 'light misting of oil' on the offside rear shock absorber; check both rear shocks to see if this has developed into a significant leak.
Additionally, perform a thorough check of all exterior lighting. The vehicle failed its most recent MOT in May 2026 due to a non-working offside front position lamp, so ensure all bulbs, indicators, and brake lights are operational to avoid immediate post-purchase MOT issues.
This 2015 white Renault Kangoo has covered 112,456 miles since its first registration in November 2015. The MOT history is largely clean, with the most recent test in May 2026 passing with no defects after a minor failure for a position lamp. While there was a minor advisory regarding shock absorber oil misting in 2023, the vehicle has maintained a steady progression of mileage.
No aggregate reliability data is available for this specific Renault Kangoo model to provide a comparative benchmark.
