2014 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · CV14 CXO

The Renault Captur stands roadworthy after its latest MOT on 21 March 2026 at 110,247 miles, the tester logging no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the most recent examination showing a clean sheet and no carried advisories from earlier years. Prior repeated failures without recorded defects did not translate into ongoing mechanical decline. The odometer read 104,006 miles at the March 2024 test, rose to 105,227 miles by March 2025, and reached 110,247 miles by March 2026. That spans roughly 1,200 miles over the first twelve months and 5,000 over the next, both beneath the 9,187-mile yearly average for a 12-year-old vehicle. Usage appears light and consistent, with all tests clustered in spring and no evidence of rapid accumulation or long dormant periods. The record shows a peculiar pattern: on 22 March 2024 the car failed then passed same-day, and on 18 March 2025 it failed before passing three days later, each time with no defects listed. A buyer should retrieve the official refusal reasons to rule out omitted categories such as exhaust emissions or structural integrity. Physically inspect front suspension bushes, rear coil springs, brake discs and calipers for consumable wear at 110,000 miles. Check sills and subframe for corrosion given the vehicle's age. The lack of advisories across five tests implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current or testers noted nothing borderline. Still, a pre-purchase inspection remains prudent for drivetrain mounts and tyre condition beyond the recorded dates.
