2014 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · CX14 ACU

This Renault Captur presents a stable and exceptionally clean maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 16 January 2025 at 100,368 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent trend of clean passes dating back to 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has avoided common age-related degradation. The mileage accumulation has increased significantly in recent years. Between November 2021 and January 2023, the vehicle covered 24,206 miles. This pace accelerated further between January 2023 and January 2024, adding 19,503 miles. The most recent interval shows a further increase to 100,368 miles. While the overall average of 8,364 miles per year is typical for a 2014 model, the recent surge in usage indicates the car has moved from light duty to more intensive daily use. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 24 November 2021 at 54,496 miles, though the specific defect was not detailed in the summary. Because the MOT history is suspiciously clean, a physical inspection should focus on wear items that testers sometimes overlook, such as the condition of the timing belt and water pump given the 100,000-mile threshold. A buyer should specifically check for chassis corrosion and the state of the rear suspension components. While the DVSA records show no structural failures, the increased mileage over the last three years puts additional stress on the drivetrain and coil springs. Verifying service history for oil changes and filter replacements is essential to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean MOT record.
