2017 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · NL51 AWL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 26 January 2026 at 47,035 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a remarkably stable maintenance trend, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the accumulation of mechanical faults or structural degradation over the last five testing cycles. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,226 miles per year. Between January 2022 and January 2026, the car covered 19,218 miles, showing a consistent and predictable usage pattern of roughly 4,800 to 5,500 miles annually. This regularity suggests light-city use rather than long-distance commuting. Such low mileage generally results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to aging rubber-based parts that may perish due to periods of inactivity. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age rather than just mileage. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles can become brittle over time. Check the brake discs and calipers for pitting or seizing, as infrequently used brakes often develop surface rust or uneven pad wear. Additionally, verify the age and condition of the tyres, as the tread depth may be sufficient while the rubber compound shows signs of hardening or cracking.
