2019 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · HT19 CTU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 January 2026 at 44,419 miles. This latest test flagged a minor advisory for a binding offside rear service brake, though the tester noted it was not excessive. This follows a clean pass in January 2025, suggesting the car has been kept in a generally acceptable condition. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,346 miles per year. The distance covered between the January 2023 test at 30,251 miles and the January 2026 test at 44,419 miles shows steady, predictable use. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of stagnation that would suggest neglect or commercial misuse. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system. The January 2024 test at 35,398 miles noted worn front brake discs, and the most recent 2026 entry highlights a binding rear brake. While these were recorded as advisories rather than failures, the recurrence of brake-related notes suggests the system is reaching a point where components require replacement. The rest of the history is remarkably clean. The only failure occurred on 6 January 2023 at 30,141 miles due to a faulty windscreen wiper, which was resolved within three days. There are no records of structural corrosion, suspension failure, or exhaust emissions issues, indicating a vehicle that has likely benefited from routine, basic upkeep.
