2017 Renault Captur 1.2L Petrol · HV17 UHT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test in March 2026 at 52,648 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable but reactive approach toward the braking system and exterior protection. While the car has passed its most recent inspections, the persistent presence of pitted and scored front brake discs across every record from 2023 to 2026 indicates that the owner opts to meet the minimum legal safety standard rather than performing preventative maintenance. At nine years old, the car has covered 52,648 miles, averaging approximately 5,850 miles per year. This usage is significantly below the national average, which typically suggests lighter use. However, there is a notable spike in activity between March 2025 (42,108 miles) and March 2026 (52,648 miles), where the vehicle covered over 16,000 miles in a single year. This burst of activity coincides with the 2024 failure where both front tyres suffered structural tears and reached illegal wear limits. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front braking system, as the record confirms surface corrosion on the discs for four consecutive years. The low mileage likely contributes to this pitting if the vehicle sits for long periods, allowing moisture to react. Furthermore, the 2026 test noted that undertrays are now obscuring components. This necessitates a physical check of the undercarriage for any hidden structural corrosion or fluid leaks that the tester could not fully evaluate due to the fitted shielding.
