2015 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · FH65 EEZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 8 January 2026 at 98,305 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. Following a single failure in early 2024, the vehicle has maintained a clean record, suggesting that any previous mechanical issues were addressed immediately by the owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between February 2023 at 75,135 miles and February 2025 at 89,629 miles, the car covered roughly 14,000 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The interval of 8,676 miles between the February 2025 and January 2026 tests confirms the vehicle remains in regular use, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components associated with long periods of standing. While the MOT record is currently clean, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of components prone to wear at high mileage. At nearly 100,000 miles, the suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for tearing or fatigue, as these often fail shortly after a test pass. The brake discs and pads also require scrutiny for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the MOT only tests the efficiency of the braking system. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the chassis for structural corrosion on the sills is also necessary to ensure no hidden rust has been compromised over time.
