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

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data, though the record is now significantly outdated. The most recent MOT test conducted in February 2022 at 117,546 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the vehicle met minimum legal standards at that time. However, as the current date is July 2026, the vehicle has gone more than four years without its last official inspection, leaving the current mechanical state and structural integrity entirely unverified by the DVSA. The Renault Kangoo shows a consistent usage pattern, averaging approximately 11,755 miles per year, which aligns with typical expectations for a decade-old light commercial. Between the March 2020 test at 87,892 miles and the March 2021 test at 102,224 miles, the vehicle covered over 14,000 miles in a single year. The interval slowed between March 2021 and February 2022, where only 1,322 additional miles were recorded. The lack of mileage data since early 2022 suggests the vehicle has either been stationary or the owner has failed to maintain the legal record for the last four years. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components due to the long gap in documented testing. Given the age and mileage, attention should be paid to structural corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and exhaust system, common failure points on this model. The previous history shows failures in 2021 and 2022 that were rectified immediately to achieve passes, suggesting the previous owner reacted to faults rather than performing proactive preventative mechanical maintenance. A check of the brake calipers for binding and the condition of the suspension bushes is essential to ensure that no significant wear has occurred during the period of unrecorded use.
