2015 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · FM15 AHV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass in February 2026 at 68,869 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement as the mechanical defects identified in previous years have been addressed in the most recent test. While the 2025 test highlighted suspension wear and tyre issues, the lack of defects this year indicates that the current owner is responding to safety-related advisories before they become failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, with 5,500 miles covered between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 7,051 miles covered in the final sixteen months leading up to the latest test. This regularity suggests the car has been used consistently rather than left stationary for long periods, which generally benefits the condition of rubber components and braking systems by preventing dry-rot and seizing. A buyer should focus specifically on the front suspension during a physical inspection, as the anti-roll bar linkages and joints were flagged for wear in 2024 and 2025. Despite the recent pass, these rubber components are prone to degradation on Renault models of this age. The braking system also warrants a check; the 2023 record noted pitted discs and thin pads, so the buyer should verify that these components were actually replaced and check for any signs of uneven wear or premature thinning in their current state.
