2015 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · SL54 MLL

This Renault Kangoo presents a clean and stable MOT history, with the most recent test on 22 May 2025 at 69,053 miles showing no defects—an outcome repeated across the last four examinations. The only anomaly in the record is the double entry on 11 October 2022 , where the vehicle was tested twice at 47,839 miles , once failing and once passing without defects logged. This suggests a clerical error rather than a mechanical issue, given the subsequent flawless results. The absence of advisories or defects over nearly three years of testing implies consistent upkeep, though the lack of recorded faults does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, or exhaust mounts. The mileage accumulation of 6,278 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, indicating neither excessive nor negligible driving. The 12-month gap between the 2023 (56,659 miles) and 2024 (56,749 miles) tests —just 90 miles apart —stands out as unusual, suggesting either a delayed MOT or a period of minimal use. More recently, the 12-month interval between 2024 (56,749 miles) and 2025 (69,053 miles) reflects 12,304 miles driven , a more typical annual distance. While the data is sparse on advisories, the steady mileage and clean MOTs suggest the vehicle has been maintained to avoid major failures, though this does not guarantee long-term component health beyond what’s visibly tested. A prospective buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components , particularly the front lower arms, track rod ends, and coil springs , as these are common wear points not always caught in MOT tests. The rear brake system warrants close attention—binding calipers or uneven disc wear could develop without prior MOT flags, especially given the lack of recorded brake-related advisories. Structural corrosion should be checked under sills, wheel arches, and around the exhaust system, as rust progression can accelerate between tests. Finally, while the MOT history is reassuring, fluid levels (brake, coolant, power steering) and tyre condition —including uneven wear—should be verified, as these are not always documented unless they reach critical thresholds. The vehicle’s clean record is a positive indicator, but hidden wear in non-MOT-tested areas remains a prudent concern.
