2016 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · CY16 HVM

The 2025‑11‑12 MOT at 31,626 miles confirms the Renault Captur remains roadworthy, though the test recorded front brake disc wear (1.1.14 (a) (i)) and thin front brake pads (1.1.13 (a) (ii)). No structural or emission defects were noted, indicating a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening condition. The mileage has risen steadily from 20,515 miles in June 2019 to 31,626 miles in November 2025, averaging roughly 1,850 miles per year, which is modest for a ten‑year‑old vehicle and suggests limited usage or periods of standing, with no major gaps in the annual testing schedule. A buyer should therefore prioritize inspection of the braking system, measuring disc thickness against the minimum 1.5 mm specification and checking pad wear indicators, as the recent test already flagged thin pads and a worn disc. The 2020‑11‑13 MOT noted near‑limit wear on both front tyres (5.2.3 (e)), indicating that tyre tread depth should be verified and replacement considered, while the absence of defect entries in later tests does not guarantee the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs or binding calipers, which should be examined for play, corrosion or uneven wear. Finally, the buyer ought to inspect the chassis and underbody for structural rust, particularly around the wheel arches and suspension mounting points, and confirm that the exhaust system meets the 2025 emission limits, as the record shows no emission defects but does not rule out emerging corrosion or wear.
