2011 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · NX11 VLH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 20 March 2026 at 57,330 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate rectification following test failures. The two failures recorded in March 2025 and March 2026 were followed immediately by passes, indicating that the owner is proactive in addressing defects identified by the tester rather than allowing mechanical or structural issues to accumulate. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,822 miles per year. Between the March 2024 test at 51,867 miles and the March 2025 test at 54,031 miles, the vehicle covered only 2,164 miles in a year. This low usage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals. The consistent growth in mileage suggests the van is used primarily for short-distance local trips. A physical inspection should focus on the specific risks associated with low-mileage aging vehicles. The buyer must check for signs of corrosion on the structural members and exhaust system, as rust develops over time regardless of the distance driven. Given the low usage, the inspector should evaluate the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or perish rot, which occurs through age alone. The brakes should also be examined for binding calipers or seized pistons, as infrequent use often causes surface oxidation and mechanical failure on the braking discs.
