2002 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · RK52 AEF

A remarkably consistent record of roadworthiness defines this Renault Kangoo, which has maintained a clean MOT history with no recorded defects or advisories over the last several years. This stable trend was confirmed in the most recent test on 30 September 2025, indicating a vehicle that has remained mechanically compliant without the recurring failures often associated with older utility vehicles. The recorded mileage of 87,409 miles is notably low for a twenty-four-year-old vehicle, representing an average annual usage of approximately 3,642 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has avoided the high-intensity wear and tear typical of commercial duty, which generally preserves the internal health of the engine and drivetrain. However, such low mileage over a long duration often means that rubber components and seals are subject to age-related degradation rather than wear-based failure. Because the DVSA records are entirely devoid of advisories or failures, there are no specific mechanical defects to target for repair. The inspection should instead focus on verifying the physical condition of the underbody and suspension linkages to ensure no corrosion has developed that escaped the latest test. On a test drive, the buyer should listen for knocks over bumps, which would indicate wear in the suspension bushes or coil springs. The absence of recorded brake or steering issues.
