2004 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · SA04 LTV

This Renault Kangoo has maintained a consistent MOT pass record since its most recent test on 2025-09-02 , with no defects recorded at 122,277 miles . The absence of advisories or failures across the last four tests—including a double entry in 2023 (both passes) at 118,715 miles —suggests the vehicle has undergone regular servicing and has not exhibited systemic issues requiring attention. However, the 2023 double entry is unusual and may indicate a temporary administrative error rather than a mechanical trend, though it does not imply recurring faults. The most recent test, just 10 months ago , aligns with the standard annual MOT cycle, confirming the vehicle remains legally roadworthy under current standards. The recorded mileage of 122,277 miles over 22 years equates to approximately 5,558 miles per year , which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The gap between tests—particularly the 11-month interval between the 2022 (117,220 miles) and 2023 (118,715 miles) passes—suggests the vehicle may have been stored or used sparingly during that period. There are no red flags in mileage accumulation, but prolonged inactivity could contribute to wear in components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers if not periodically moved or serviced. The lack of advisories or failures also implies that basic maintenance—such as fluid checks and tyre rotations—has likely been consistent. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of suspension components , particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs , which may show signs of fatigue or corrosion given the vehicle’s age. The braking system , including rear calipers and discs , should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as the absence of failures does not preclude gradual deterioration. Structural integrity, especially around the wheel arches and sills , warrants scrutiny for corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has spent time in wet or coastal environments. While the MOT record provides no cause for immediate concern, these areas are critical for long-term reliability in a vehicle of this vintage.
