2010 Renault Kangoo 1.6L Petrol · WN10 ODJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend of deferred repairs regarding critical safety components. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 109,230 miles passed, the vehicle initially failed due to a non-functional stop lamp, a worn offside tyre, and play in the track rod end. The persistence of corroded brake pipes and worn components across multiple years suggests that the owner is only addressing the minimum requirements to pass the MOT test rather than performing preventative mechanical maintenance. At 109,230 miles over 16 years, the vehicle averages approximately 6,800 miles per year, which is consistent with typical light usage for a small commercial vehicle. The mileage data shows steady progression, with roughly 2,800 miles covered between January 2025 and January 2026, and approximately 5,100 miles in the year preceding that. This consistent interval indicates the vehicle is used regularly, though the relatively low mileage has not prevented the degradation of rubber and metal components, as evidenced by the recurring corrosion noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, as pipe corrosion has been flagged in every test since 2023. The presence of grease or material covering these pipes is particularly concerning as it can mask active fluid leaks or advanced structural decay. Furthermore, the steering geometry shows signs of wear, with the tester noting play in the steering rack inner joints in 2025 and the track rod end in 2026. These recurring issues, combined with pitted brake discs and defective headlamp lenses, indicate the vehicle is reaching a stage where significant suspension and braking investment will be required to maintain safety standards.
