2018 Renault Captur 0.9L Petrol · LC68 FHR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in January 2026 at 18,449 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This consistency suggests the vehicle has remained well-kept and has not suffered from recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,300 miles per year. Between December 2021 and January 2023, the car covered only 2,593 miles, indicating long periods of stationary use. More recent data shows a slight increase in usage, with 1,663 miles recorded between the December 2024 test and the January 2026 test. While the low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to flat-spotting or degradation of rubber seals. Despite the clean record, a buyer must physically inspect the vehicle for specific issues associated with low-mileage storage. Check for surface corrosion on the brake discs and calipers, as moisture often accumulates when cars sit for long periods. Examine the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking, as rubber ages over time regardless of the tread depth. Additionally, verify the suspension bushes and split boots to ensure the lack of movement has not caused the materials to become brittle or perish.
