2008 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · OV58 CKC

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on June 26, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by instant passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed the test on one day and passed the following day. This suggests the previous owner engaged in reactive maintenance, where faults were only addressed immediately to satisfy the MOT requirements rather than through a preventative service schedule. At 245,545 miles, this eighteen-year-old Renault reflects significant mileage, averaging approximately 13,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over recent years, with 2,704 miles recorded between June 2023 and June 2024, and another 2,273 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This high annual mileage places considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking components, though the lack of long stationary periods indicates the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left idle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, particularly given the age and high mileage which often lead to corrosion in the sills and subframes. Inspect the front suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of excessive wear, as these are common failure points on the Kangoo platform. Because the MOT history shows recurring failures immediately before passes, it is vital to check for binding calipers or uneven wear on brake discs to ensure the recent repairs were thorough rather than temporary fixes.
