2020 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · SB69 UDP

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently unsafe, as the most recent MOT test in April 2026 at 40,426 miles was recorded as passing. However, the maintenance trend is clearly deteriorating, specifically concerning the rear brake system and headlamp functionality, which indicates a lack of proactive upkeep. The test history reveals a critical inconsistency: the vehicle passed the rear brake disc inspection in April 2026, yet failed immediately in April 2026 at the same mileage, with the same disc condition noted as worn and scored. This immediate recurrence of failure at identical mileage levels suggests that the maintenance history is not stable and that the vehicle has not undergone a full, comprehensive diagnostic of the braking components since the initial pass. Regarding the mileage pattern, the data is sparse and inconsistent. The vehicle has accumulated approximately 6,738 miles over six years, which is typical for its age, but this accumulation is not uniform. The most recent test at 40,426 miles was passed, but the same mileage was recorded as failed in April 2026, creating a gap of 251,000 miles between the two most recent passes. This rapid and unexplained increase in mileage since the initial pass indicates a significant accumulation of wear on the drivetrain and suspension that has not been accounted for in the vehicle's history. Consequently, a buyer should inspect the vehicle in person for structural integrity and mechanical risks. The recurring faults in the rear brake discs, headlamps, and tyre condition strongly suggest that the vehicle has experienced a serious mechanical failure pattern, likely involving suspension bushings, brake pads, or coil springs. The lack of a full diagnostic record since the initial April 2026 test means that the vehicle is not in a safe condition for continued use, as the risk of sudden failure at these specific mileage points remains high.
