2017 Renault Captur 1.2L Petrol · MM66 YWN

The 2017 Renault Captur presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a fully clean pass on 2 April 2026 at 63,720 miles with zero defects recorded. That result is the most recent MOT entry, sitting just over two months before today's date, which confirms the vehicle was assessed in very current mechanical condition. The record shows no active advisories or recurring failures at the most recent test, indicating that any prior defects have been addressed and the car is currently meeting all DVSA roadworthiness standards. The mileage progression is consistent and unremarkable for a nine-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2023 test at 41,248 miles and the April 2026 test at 63,720 miles, the car covered roughly 22,472 miles over three years, averaging approximately 7,490 miles annually. This sits within the typical range for its age and suggests regular, steady use rather than prolonged standing or unusually heavy annual accumulation. No significant gaps appear in the testing record that would raise concern about extended periods without MOT cover. The 2024 failure on 10 April at 48,886 miles flagged significantly worn front brake discs and thin front brake pads, both rectified before the same-day retest passed. That episode indicates the front braking system experienced a period of neglect or hard use, but the subsequent clean passes in 2025 and 2026 suggest the issue was properly resolved rather than left to deteriorate. The March 2023 test noted both a nearside front and offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit, pointing to uneven tyre wear patterns that may reflect alignment, inflation, or suspension geometry concerns at that time. A prospective buyer should inspect the front brake discs and pads for even wear given the prior failure, check tyre condition and tread depth across all four corners, and examine the suspension bushes and tracking for any signs of the uneven wear pattern flagged in 2023. The underbody and structural mounting points should also be inspected for corrosion, as the Captur's age and mileage place it in a window where surface rust can begin to affect structural integrity if not previously treated.
