2015 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · LD65 AEW

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following the most recent MOT pass on 20 June 2025 at 76,440 miles. The inspection history shows a recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by passes within a 48-hour window, specifically in June 2025 and June 2024. These instances suggest the vehicle may have failed on minor, easily rectifiable items such as blown bulbs, wiper blades, or tyre tread depth, which were corrected prior to the successful retests. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical usage pattern for an 11-year-old vehicle. The record shows a steady progression from 56,045 miles in June 2023 to 66,711 miles in June 2024, and finally 76,440 miles in June 2025. This represents an average annual distance of approximately 10,000 miles, which aligns with the provided context of roughly 6,949 miles per year. The data indicates regular, predictable use rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway mileage. While the MOT history is clean of structural or mechanical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components that typically wear after 75,000 miles. You should specifically examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of perished rubber or leaks. Given the age and mileage, checking the brake discs for heavy corrosion or uneven wear and inspecting the underside for chassis rust is also advisable. The absence of recorded defects in the most recent tests is a positive indicator of general upkeep. However, because the failures in 2024 and 2025 were resolved so quickly, it is worth verifying that the owner addressed the underlying causes rather than just the symptoms. A thorough check of the tyre condition and the integrity of the wiper blades during a viewing would be prudent to ensure the vehicle meets the standards required for a successful MOT.
