The Renault Kangoo is a car that many of us like to think we have the measure of. If most car buyers were asked to describe it, they'd probably reckon on a van with windows and seats in the back, fairly crude, cheap and rugged. And that would be a perfectly valid description of the Kangoo that was launched in 2004. The version that was launched in 2009, however, was a subtly different thing, although this fact was lost on most potential customers.
Instead of being based on a commercial vehicle, the second-generation Kangoo was based on the Renault Scenic MPV, albeit with a taller and more spacious bodyshell. It rode better, it was more practical, more sophisticated and better built. Quite why this was never adequately communicated to the car-buying public is anyone's guess, but it left Renault with a really impressive family car of which nobody knew the backstory. Consider yourself informed now. If you're interested in tracking down a used example, here's what to look for.
History
Van-based MPV vehicles aren't a new thing in the British market. Between them, the Renault Kangoo, the Citroen Berlingo Multispace and the Peugeot Partner Tepee have attacked the market in a French triple-headed pincer movement but of the three, the Renault has probably been the most appealing. It differentiated itself from its rivals in its first generation guise by offering a neat four-wheel drive variant that rural buyers loved called the Trekka. The original Kangoo was a bit rough and ready but if you needed a car that you didn't feel the need to get too precious about, it was a star performer.
Perhaps Renault felt that buyer demands had altered when they finally came round to replacing the original car. The second generation Kangoo was a bigger and more sophisticated vehicle. Instead of riding on old van underpinnings, the Kangoo instead ran on a modified Scenic running gear. The engine choice was also far more appealing. Where the old car was launched with a wheezy 75bhp petrol engine or a 65bhp diesel chugger, the second generation Kangoo debuted with the choice of 90bhp 8-valve and 105bhp 16-valve petrol units. The 1.5-litre diesels were pitched around £1,000-£1,500 over their petrol equivalents. The choice boiled down to 68bhp, 86bhp and 106bhp versions of the common-rail injection dCi engine.
The Kangoo continued until early 2012, with Dynamique, Authentique and i-Music models added in late 2009. At the end of 2011 it was announced that Renault would pare its range back to just its very biggest selling models. The Kangoo was quietly deleted from the line up, joining established names like the Laguna, the Modus and the Espace among the retirees.
