2016 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · HS16 FVH

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT test on 30 January 2026 at 110,576 miles. The maintenance history demonstrates a highly stable and reactive pattern where the car consistently passes just two days after an initial failure. This trend suggests that the previous owner is proactive in addressing immediate defects flagged by the tester to ensure legal compliance. The lack of recorded advisories across the last three tests indicates a lack of developing mechanical degradation or structural corrosion over the last two years. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. Between the January 2024 test at 87,208 miles and the January 2025 test at 98,780 miles, the car covered 11,572 miles. A further 11,796 miles were recorded in the following year up to January 2026. This steady usage profile suggests typical motorway driving, which generally results in predictable wear on components like suspension bushes and brakes rather than the neglect associated with long periods of standing. While the record is clean of persistent advisories, the recurring failures two days prior to passing warrant a physical inspection of the specific items that caused the rejects. Since the record does not list the specific defects for those failures, a buyer should verify the condition of common consumables such as bulbs, wiper blades, or tyre tread which often trigger immediate failures. Given the mileage exceeding 110,000 miles, close attention should be paid to the suspension control arm bushings and the thickness of the brake discs to ensure no hidden mechanical wear is developing between annual test intervals.
