2016 Renault Kadjar 1.5L Diesel · SY66 UJA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. The most recent test on 20 August 2024 at 73,214 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just one day prior at 73,211 miles. This specific sequence suggests a minor, easily rectified issue, such as a blown bulb or a minor sensor fault, which was addressed immediately before the retest without indicating deeper mechanical degradation. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per annum. Between December 2021 and December 2022, the car covered 8,967 miles, while the period from December 2022 to August 2024 saw 16,242 miles recorded. This steady accumulation indicates regular, light use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals, rubber components, and preventing the corrosion-related issues often associated with low-use vehicles. Given that the record shows no advisories for structural corrosion or mechanical failure, an in-person inspection should focus on standard wear items for a Renault of this age. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these are common points of wear around the 70,000-mile mark. The brake discs should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, although the MOT record does not flag any prior issues here. The clean history suggests the previous owners maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided recurring mechanical failures.
