2002 Renault Kangoo 1.5L Diesel · SM02 ALO

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the data set is limited by its age. The most recent recorded test on 15 November 2021 at 112,260 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, following a failure just five days prior at the same mileage. Because no tests have been recorded for nearly five years since then, the vehicle is likely operating without a valid MOT, and the current state of mechanical components cannot be verified through historical records alone. The recorded mileage of 112,260 miles over 24 years averages to a low usage of approximately 4,678 miles per year. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle saw either light domestic use or spent long periods sitting stationary. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of perished seals, seized brake calipers, and fluid degradation. The lack of mileage data since 2021 makes it impossible to determine if the usage has accelerated in the last several years. A physical inspection must focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension mounting points, as this generation of Renault is prone to significant corrosion. Given the long gap in testing history, a buyer should check for seized mechanical components and perished rubber bushes that often occur when vehicles are used infrequently. The braking system requires a thorough check for binding calipers or disc pitting, as the low-usage pattern frequently leads to rust buildup on the rotors during periods of inactivity.
