2006 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · LT56 SXC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred attention regarding consumable wear items. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 62,209 miles passed, it carried advisories for pitted and scored front brake discs, worn anti-roll bar bushes, and perishing tyres. These issues have persisted across the last three years of testing, suggesting that the owner addresses faults only when they reach the point of inspection failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. At approximately 20 years old, the recorded mileage of 62,209 miles is exceptionally low, averaging just 3,110 miles per year. The data shows significant intervals between tests, such as the 816-mile gap between April 2025 and April 2026, and the 542-mile gap between May 2024 and April 2025. This low usage explains the recurring reports of tyre perishing and cracking, as rubber compounds degrade over time due to age and exposure rather than through tread wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front braking system, as the discs have been flagged as worn and pitted since at least 2023. The recurring advisories for perishing and cracking tyres indicate they are reaching the end of their structural life regardless of tread depth. Furthermore, the presence of worn anti-roll bar bushes and linkages noted in previous tests suggests that the rubber components in the suspension are becoming brittle and will soon require replacement to maintain handling stability. Given the low mileage and age, the buyer should also check for structural corrosion on the chassis and sills, as long-standing vehicles often suffer from hidden rust that low-mileage records might mask.
