2019 Renault Kangoo ML19 B-Sness+ Energydci 1.5L Diesel · SC68 GXG

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass in March 2026 at 64,279 miles. This represents an improving maintenance trend compared to the significant failure in early 2024. The most recent consecutive tests in 2025 and 2026 indicate that the previous mechanical and safety defects were addressed, as the vehicle now meets all standards without advis. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a typical-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 9,200 miles per annum. There was a notable increase in usage between March 2025 and March 2026, where the vehicle covered nearly 22,000 miles in just fourteen months. However, the gap of 6,309 miles between the January 2023 and January 2024 tests suggests a period of lower usage, which often correlates with the appearance of perished tyres and corrosion noted during that period through age-related degradation of rubber components. A physical inspection should focus heavily on the braking system and fluid lines given the January 2024 failure for excessive corrosion on all rear brake pipes. While the vehicle passed subsequent tests, the buyer must verify that the replacement pipes are properly secured and that further rust is not migrating along the chassis mounting points. The front brake discs were flagged as pitted and scored in 2024; these should be checked for minimum thickness and signs of heat to ensure they were replaced correctly. The tyres also require close scrutiny for sidewall cracking, as the record shows previous perishing issues on both rear tyres two years ago. Because the mileage is relatively low for the age of the vehicle, rubber components can dry out if the van sits for long periods. Ensure the nearside wiper blade and rear stop lamps, which previously caused the initial 2024 failure, remain fully functional and free of intermittent wiring faults.
