2018 Renault Captur 0.9L Petrol · LF68 EYB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a clear trend toward improving maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 39,614 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that all previous mechanical and safety concerns have been addressed. This clean pass suggests the car is currently in good order and maintained to a standard that meets all legal safety requirements. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per annum. Data shows a consistent but light usage pattern, moving from 11,387 miles in September 2021 to 31,706 miles by early 2025. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, which is evidenced by the historical records regarding age-related wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres and braking system, as the history indicates specific issues in these areas previously. The September 2023 test at 21,588 miles flagged both rear tyres for cracking and perishing, while the 2021 test noted thin front brake pads and a worn offside front tyre. Although these issues were likely resolved, the buyer should verify the current sidewalls for dry rot and check the remaining friction material on the brake pads to ensure the low mileage hasn't caused uneven wear or corrosion on the discs.
