2002 Renault Kangoo 1.4L Petrol · WR02 NBG

The roadworthiness of this vehicle is currently questionable following a failed MOT test on 28 November 2025 at 67,303 miles. While the vehicle maintained a clean record for several years, the most recent result indicates a significant mechanical or structural failure that has not yet been rectified. The maintenance trend appeared stable between 2022 and 2024, but the recent failure suggests the vehicle has reached a point where critical components are failing or require immediate attention. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,800 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the Kangoo covered only 125 miles, showing a pattern of extreme underuse followed by roughly 500 miles in the following year. This low usage suggests the vehicle has spent long periods stationary, which often leads to specific age-related degradation issues such as perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and fluid degradation that are not necessarily reflected in the mileage reading alone. A buyer must investigate the specific cause of the November 2025 failure, as the record provides no defect details for that specific test. Given the vehicle's age and low mileage, a physical inspection should focus on structural integrity, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points where corrosion is common. The buyer should also check the suspension bushes for cracking and verify the brake system for seized components, as long-term standing can cause discs to pit and seals to fail.
