2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · SC16 RKV

The 2016 Renault Kadjar holds a current roadworthiness status of PASS, the most recent MOT recorded on 28 May 2026 at 38 323 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend is stable; every annual test since 2019 has returned a clean result, indicating consistent compliance with DVSA standards and no emerging fault patterns. Mileage progression reflects light usage for a ten‑year‑old vehicle. Between the June 2025 test (36 770 miles) and the May 2026 test (38 323 miles) only 1 553 miles were added over roughly eleven months, averaging around 1 400 miles per year. Earlier intervals show similar modest increases, confirming a low‑annual‑mileage profile that reduces wear on consumables and mechanical components. The data set is sparse in the sense that no failures or advisories have ever been logged, which itself is a positive indicator of prior owner care. Despite the spotless MOT record, a prospective buyer should conduct a hands‑on inspection of key wear items that may not be flagged by routine testing. Tyre tread depth and uniformity should be verified, as low mileage does not guarantee even wear. Brake discs and pads need close scrutiny for glazing or corrosion, while suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for cracking or excessive play. The exhaust system warrants a visual check for rust or loose brackets, and the underbody should be inspected for corrosion, especially around wheel arches and sill panels. Finally, the condition of wiper blades and the battery should be assessed, as these are consumable items that can deteriorate independently of mileage.
