Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the three recorded MOT tests available. The most recent inspection conducted on 3 December 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the clean results from the October 2024 and October 2023 tests. This consistency indicates that the vehicle has met the minimum safety and emission standards during consecutive examinations without flagging mechanical failures. At a recorded 14,328 miles, the car has covered a significantly low mileage for its six-year age, averaging approximately 2,388 miles per year. This low usage pattern suggests minimal mechanical wear on high-stress components such as the engine, drivetrain, and braking system. The records show a consistent annual testing interval since 2023, which confirms the vehicle has been kept in regular regulatory compliance despite the low annual distance travelled. Because the MOT history contains no recorded advisories or faults, a physical inspection should focus on potential issues associated with low-mileage vehicles. Cars that remain stationary can suffer from flat-spotted tyres, perished perished rubber components, and degradation of suspension bushes. A buyer should also specifically check the condition of the brake discs for corrosion and ensure the brake calipers have not seized due to infrequent use. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.

Our Verdict

A highly recommended small SUV due to its exceptionally low mileage and pristine MOT record. This vehicle represents a very under-used example of the modern Captur.

When inspecting this specific vehicle, the primary selling point is the low mileage, but you must verify that the car has been serviced annually as per the manufacturer's requirements, as low mileage can sometimes lead to neglected maintenance. Check the service history for consistent evidence of oil changes. Ensure the automatic gearbox shifts smoothly across all ranges during test drive without jerking or hesitation.

Given the S Edition trim level, check the functionality of the infotainment system and S features, which are specific to this specification level. Because the car has covered relatively little ground, look for any signs of flat-spotting on the tyres which can occur if a vehicle sits for long periods without use.

The 1.3cc turbo petrol engine is relatively efficient, typically fitting into a mid-range insurance group and moderate tax band. Owners can expect respectable fuel economy for city and motorway driving, though real-world figures will vary based on individual driving style.

Maintenance costs should be standard for a French hatchback, though the low mileage suggests fewer brake and tyre replacements. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, and basic servicing, fall between £900 and £1,200.

While the MOT history for this vehicle shows zero defects, you should still inspect the common failure points for the Captur model, such as suspension arms and wiper blades, which are noted as frequent failures across the wider fleet. Check for any signs of premature wear on the undercarriage.

Pay close attention to the tyres; even with only 14,328 miles, they should show healthy tread depth and no cracking or uneven wear patterns. Ensure the air conditioning is blowing cold, as these systems can sometimes fail in vehicles that have not been frequently used.

This 2020 Renault Captur S Edition sits at just 14,328 miles, which is significantly lower than the fleet-average for a vehicle of this age. Its MOT history is flawless, with three consecutive passes and no recorded defects or advisories since its registration in October 2020. The 1.3cc petrol engine and automatic gearbox offer a modern specification suitable for mixed driving.

The Renault Captur maintains a strong 92.4% average MOT pass rate across the fleet, with the 1.3cc engine generally regarded as a robust unit.
