2020 Renault Captur S Edition TCE 1.3L Petrol · HN70 FSU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a decline in proactive preventative maintenance. While the car maintained a clean record between 2023 and 2025, the March 2026 test at 60,425 miles revealed multiple failures that required immediate attention to rectify. The transition from a clean pass to several defects at 60,000 miles suggests that the previous owner neglected basic consumable items and safety systems until the annual test deadline. At 60,441 miles, the Renault has averaged approximately 10,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a six-year-old vehicle. The mileage progression remains consistent between 2023 and 2026, showing a steady accumulation of roughly 4,500 to 6,000 miles per annum recently. This interval suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme long-distance stress, but the age of the car remains attention to age-related degradation of rubber components and electronic sensors. A buyer must inspect the tyres thoroughly, as the 2026 record flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as worn close to the legal limit with uneven edge wear. This specific pattern often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, the reported cracking and perishing on the nearside rear tyre age-related rubber rot, necessitating replacement regardless of remaining tread depth. The failure of the tyre pressure monitoring system and the windscreen wiper blade also requires physical verification to ensure these were fully repaired rather than merely cleared.
