2013 Chevrolet Captiva 2.2L Diesel · OU63 VAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent testing data. The final MOT conducted on June 2, 2023 at 113,891 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the vehicle met the minimum legal standards at that time. While the record shows immediate failures on the same day in 2022 and 2023, the subsequent passes suggest the owner addressed any identified faults promptly to secure a certificate. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. Between March 2021 at 91,261 miles and April 2022 at 101,653 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles in a year. The subsequent 12,238 miles recorded between April 2022 and June 2023 shows a slight increase in usage. However, the last recorded test took place over three years ago relative to current date, creating a significant gap that leaves the current state of mechanical components unverified by official records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems due to the lack of recent testing. Since the MOT history does not list specific advisories from previous years, there is no data to rule out issues like perished rubber bushes, seized brake calipers, or thinning discs. Given the age and mileage of this Captiva, close attention to the structural integrity of the chassis and subframe is essential to ensure that significant corrosion has not developed since the 2023 inspection.
