RENAULT CAPTUR2016 · 1.5L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a clean bill of health, with the most recent MOT test on 16 October 2025 at 52,041 miles resulting in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This record indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the car has successfully cleared its last three annual inspections without any flagged mechanical or structural failures. The absence of recurring advisories suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent, if light, maintenance over the past three years. With a total of 52,041 miles accumulated over a ten-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 5,200 miles per annum. This low-mileage profile is consistent across the documented period, showing a steady accumulation of roughly 2,000 to 3,000 miles between annual tests. The lack of significant mileage spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity indicates that the car has likely been used for short, regular local journeys rather than sitting idle for extended durations, which helps mitigate the risk of premature seal degradation or seized components often associated with long-term storage. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the short intervals between the failed and passed tests in October 2023 and October 2024 suggest that the vehicle may have been presented for testing with minor administrative or easily rectified issues that were resolved within days. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically suffer from low-mileage use, specifically checking for seized brake calipers or surface corrosion on the brake discs. Given the age of the Renault Captur, a thorough examination of the suspension bushes and the condition of the rubber gaiters on the steering rack is recommended, as these components can perish over time regardless of the low mileage recorded on the odometer.
