2021 Renault Captur Iconic TCE 1.0L Petrol · HN21 TZB

This Renault Captur Iconic TCE demonstrates a consistently stable roadworthiness profile, with all three most recent MOT tests passing without any recorded defects or advisories. The September 2025 test at 35,300 miles confirms the vehicle remains compliant across all mandatory checks, including brakes, suspension, steering, emissions, and structural integrity. There is no evidence of recurring issues or progressive failures in the available record, though the absence of advisories does not preclude underlying wear that may not yet meet MOT thresholds. The mileage progression suggests typical usage for its age, averaging around 7,000 miles annually without abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. The gap between tests—approximately 6,000 miles—falls within the DVSA’s recommended interval for this vehicle type, indicating the owner adhered to routine servicing. There are no red flags in the recorded distances, though the lack of pre-MOT servicing records means no insight into maintenance beyond the MOT’s surface-level checks. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The brakes, while MOT-cleared, warrant closer examination for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has experienced aggressive driving or frequent heavy loads. Corrosion should be checked at wheel arches, sills, and underbody, as this is a common failure point for Renault models of this era. Tyre condition, including tread depth and lateral wear, should also be verified, as the absence of MOT defects does not guarantee no prior neglect. Structural rigidity, particularly around the rear subframe and rear axle mounting points, should be assessed for any signs of fatigue or misalignment.
