2018 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · HT18 USC

The vehicle is presently road‑worthy; the October 2025 MOT at 91,347 mi recorded a clean pass with no advisory items. After a single failure on 5 November 2024 – where the tester flagged a faulty off‑side registration plate lamp, tyre edges at the legal limit and rear‑brake binding – the subsequent 6 November 2024 test showed all faults corrected, and no further defects have appeared. The pattern indicates a stable maintenance trajectory, with earlier minor wear items resolved promptly. Across eight years the car has accumulated 91,347 mi, averaging roughly 11,400 mi per year, which sits within normal UK usage. A notable surge occurred between June 2023 (50,462 mi) and June 2024 (80,828 mi), where mileage rose by about 30,000 mi in twelve months, suggesting a period of intensified driving or a change of ownership. Prior to that, mileage grew steadily, and the record contains no large undocumented gaps, implying consistent mileage logging. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the tyre condition, as repeated advisories on tyre edges and rear‑tyre damage point to recurring wear that may accelerate with higher mileage. Inspect the rear brake assembly for any residual binding or uneven wear, especially given the 2024‑11‑05 brake‑binding advisory and the thin front‑pad note from June 2024. Verify that the registration plate lamp operates correctly and examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of fatigue, although no structural corrosion has been recorded. A thorough road‑test focusing on braking stability and tyre grip will confirm that the earlier issues have been fully remedied.
