Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2018 Renault Kadjar passed its most recent MOT on 19 December 2025 at 93,212 miles, confirming that it remains roadworthy despite recorded advisories on the front suspension arm pins/bushes and the offside front tyre. The test showed no failures, only the noted suspension and tyre wear, indicating a stable mechanical condition. Mileage has risen from 28,628 miles in May 2021 to 93,212 miles in December 2025, an average increase of roughly 11,650 miles per year, matching the vehicle’s age and suggesting regular use rather than long periods of inactivity. The interval between the 2022 and 2023 tests was about one year, and the 2024 tests were spaced five months apart, reflecting a consistent testing schedule. A buyer should therefore inspect the front and rear suspension components, paying particular attention to the condition of the front lower arm pins and bushes, the rear wishbone bushes, and the tyre tread, especially the offside front tyre which was noted as worn close to the legal limit in the latest test. The brake system warrants close scrutiny: the front and rear pads have repeatedly been recorded as wearing thin, and the brake discs have shown pitting and corrosion, so replacement or resurfacing may be required. The headlamp failure on the 2024 test indicates a need to verify the dipped‑beam operation. Overall, the vehicle’s maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring wear items rather than catastrophic failures, and the steady mileage accumulation supports the view that previous owners have used the car consistently; a thorough in‑person inspection of suspension bushings, brake wear, tyre condition, and any signs of structural rust is essential before purchase.
