2009 Renault Kangoo 1.1L Petrol · SH58 UAM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred repairs on aging mechanical components. While it passed its most recent test in April 2026 at 97,033 miles, it failed the inspection just days prior due to multiple safety-related defects. The record shows a recurring failure to address suspension issues, specifically corroded coil springs and worn anti-roll bar linkages across three consecutive years, suggesting that the owner only performs the minimum work required to pass the MOT test rather than proactive preventative maintenance. At approximately 17 years old, the recorded 97,033 miles represent relatively low usage, averaging around 5,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent but infrequent travel, with roughly 3,800 miles covered between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 4,040 miles in the following year. This low mileage often correlates with less wear on the engine, but it frequently leads to the degradation of rubber components and increased corrosion due to time rather than use-related stress. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension, as the tester has repeatedly flagged corroded coil springs and worn anti-roll bar bushes since 2025. The 2026 report also noted corrosion on the rear axle, which requires a close look to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis is not being compromised. Additionally, the persistent presence of oil and coolant leaks across multiple tests indicates aging seals or gaskets that will likely lead to more significant mechanical failures if not monitored.
