2016 Renault Kadjar 1.6L Diesel · SW16 ABZ

The Renault Kadjar presents as roadworthy following the August 2025 test cycle, with the most recent pass recorded on 11 August 2025 at 80,322 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the five-year MOT span, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged at any stage. The only anomaly is a failed test on 8 August 2025 at 80,294 miles carrying no recorded defects, followed three days later by a clean pass; this suggests an administrative or documentation issue at the testing station rather than a latent vehicle fault. Annual mileage sits at a modest 8,032 per year against the vehicle's ten-year age, with the odometer progressing from 49,601 miles in August 2022 to 60,427 in August 2023, 69,559 in August 2024, and 80,322 by August 2025. The yearly increments of roughly 9,000 to 11,000 miles are consistent and show no abrupt accumulation or prolonged standing. The record is sparse but clean, offering no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs across the observed period. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's decade of service, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture incipient wear below failure thresholds. The unexplained fail on 8 August 2025 warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason code and the retest paperwork to confirm no suppressed defect. Examine underbody corrosion and exhaust emissions hardware in person, since the Kadjar's platform can suffer structural rust in harsh climates despite a clear test history.
