2018 Renault Captur 0.9L Petrol · AV18 AAE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward minor wear-related defects. The most recent test in March 2026 at 14,202 miles resulted in a pass despite identifying a slightly distorted nearside front road wheel. This follows a period in 2025 where front tyres were nearing legal limits, indicating that while the vehicle remains mechanically sound, basic consumables are now requiring attention after long intervals. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,775 miles per year. The Data shows consistent, low-usage patterns, moving from 9,213 miles in March 2023 to 14,202 miles by March 2026. This low level of annual travel typically suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as flat-spotting, brake corrosion, or degradation of rubber seals. A buyer should specifically inspect the nearside front wheel for signs of impact or stress, as the distortion noted in the 2026 test suggests a previous kerb artwork. The March 2023 failure regardingine windscreen wipers was rectified, but the age of the car means the blades should be checked for perished rubber. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should also verify the brake discs for surface rust and ensure the tyres are not age-cracked despite having sufficient tread depth.
