2002 Renault Kangoo 1.1L Petrol · OU52 AXC

This 2002 Renault Kangoo demonstrates a remarkably clean recent maintenance trend, culminating in a pass on 2025-09-09 at 149,411 miles with zero defects recorded. This pristine result directly follows a test failure just weeks prior on 2025-08-15 at 149,410 miles, though the record oddly lists no specific defect codes for that refusal. The overall structural and mechanical compliance appears stable based on consecutive clean passes stretching back through June 2024 at 146,937 miles, June 2023 at 140,966 miles, and June 2022 at 121,551 miles, none of which generated any advisories or failure points. The vehicle has accumulated 149,411 miles over its twenty-four-year lifespan, averaging approximately 6,225 miles annually, which sits comfortably within typical usage parameters for a light commercial vehicle of this era. A significant mileage jump occurred between June 2022 and June 2023, where the odometer advanced by roughly 19,400 miles in a single twelve-month window. Following this intensive period of use, the driving frequency decelerated markedly, evidenced by modest annual mileage gains of about 6,000 miles leading up to the September 2025 inspection. Prospective buyers must approach this Kangoo with careful physical scrutiny because the complete absence of historical advisory notes is statistically unusual for a vehicle of this age and often conceals deferred maintenance rather than perfection. You should prioritize a rigorous underbody inspection on a ramp to check the structural integrity of the chassis sills, suspension mountings, and floorpan for hidden corrosion. Furthermore, examine the rubber suspension bushes, brake discs, and fluid lines closely, as these high-wear items frequently evade detection on basic MOT checks yet demand replacement on older French utility vehicles.
