RENAULT CAPTUR2016 · 0.9L PETROL

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state having passed its most recent MOT on 19 March 2026 at 94,058 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. The failure on 16 March 2026 at 93,863 miles resulted in no recorded defects, which suggests a minor non-mechanical failure such as a blown bulb, light plate, or sensor fault that was rectified immediately prior to the retest three days later. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle averaging approximately 9,400 miles per annum. Between the March 2024 test at 65,856 miles and the March 2025 test at 81,329 miles, the car covered 15,473 miles, indicating a period of higher-than-average usage. The subsequent interval of 12,729 miles between March 2025 and March 2026 returns to a more typical pattern. This consistent use suggests components have been subjected to regular wear and tear rather than long periods of stagnation. The absence of recorded advisories across the last three years is notable for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Typically, records would flag early suspension bush wear, thinning tyre treads, or minor exhaust corrosion. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the chassis for structural rust and check the suspension arm bushings, as the MOT does not test for all play. Given the mileage, a close look at the brake disc thickness and the condition of the drivetrain is advisable to ensure no hidden mechanical fatigue exists despite the clean test history.
