Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Renault Kadjar presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 22 July 2025 at 84,535 miles which recorded a pass with no defects. Prior annual tests show the same clean outcome, establishing a consistent pattern of mechanical reliability across the recorded history. The July 2024 entry shows a fail logged on 29 July at 73,330 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same date at the same mileage; this points to an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared the test without advisory or failure items. The odometer readings trace a steady accumulation from 59,343 miles at the 26 July 2022 test through 64,645 miles in July 2023, 73,330 miles in July 2024, and 84,535 miles by July 2025. That equates to roughly 8,000 to 11,000 miles per year, sitting close to the typical expectation for a 2016 vehicle and indicating regular but not excessive use by prior keepers. No standing periods or abrupt mileage jumps appear in the sequence, and the sparse clean record suggests the previous owners kept basic consumable wear within test limits. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the absent advisories. The MOT system only captures defects present on the test day, so suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc thickness, and underbody corrosion remain unverified by the supplied data. The 2024 same-day fail and pass with zero defects warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason code to rule out a clerical error. Given the clean ten-year history and ordinary mileage, the Kadjar shows no evidence of neglected upkeep or recurring mechanical trends. Prospective purchasers should verify service records and scrutinise tyre condition, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity at point of sale to confirm the test-day cleanliness reflects true ongoing condition.
