AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is presently roadworthy, having passed the 14 February 2026 MOT at 66,642 miles with no recorded defects. The earlier failure on 17 February 2024 for deteriorated anti‑roll bar linkage dust covers and front‑tyre edge wear was rectified, and subsequent tests in 2025 and 2026 show a clean record, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 47,522 miles in February 2023 to 66,642 miles in February 2026, averaging roughly 6,600 miles per year. This progression aligns with typical usage for a ten‑year‑old 2016 Renault Kadjar and reveals no periods of rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps in the log. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the front anti‑roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers; inspect the housing for corrosion, cracked seals, or ingress of dirt that could compromise the suspension joints. Front tyre edges merit close visual examination for lingering wear patterns that may reappear despite the recent pass. While the MOT record does not flag brakes, a tactile check of brake pedal feel and a visual inspection of pads and discs are prudent. Finally, a walk‑around for any surface rust around suspension mounting points will confirm that the earlier anti‑roll bar issue has not led to broader structural concerns.
