2017 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · HV67 WHF

The 2025‑09‑17 MOT at 30,917 miles records a pass with a front headlamp aim defect, meaning the vehicle is currently not fully road‑legal until the alignment is corrected. Earlier tests from 2020 to 2024 show no recorded defects, indicating a generally stable maintenance record, but the recent headlamp issue suggests a possible trend of suspension or steering wear affecting alignment. Mileage accumulation has been modest, averaging roughly 3,400 miles per year since the 2020 test at 16,215 miles. Annual increments remained around 3,000 miles until the 2024‑09‑27 test at 29,666 miles, after which only 1,251 miles were added by the 2025‑09‑17 test, reflecting periods of low usage rather than rapid wear. Recurring faults include thin front brake pads (2023), tyres worn on the inner edge (2023), and the headlamp aim defect (2025). These patterns point to potential suspension bush wear, steering geometry issues, and brake component wear, while no structural rust or major mechanical failures appear in the record. A buyer should inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, steering linkage, brake caliper binding, tyre tread and wear patterns, and verify headlamp alignment; additionally, check for any hidden rust or fluid leaks. The maintenance history is largely stable, but the recent alignment defect warrants close scrutiny before purchase.
