2013 Renault Captur 0.9L Petrol · SA63 DXC

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy state, having passed its most recent test in May 2026 with 110,783 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met minimum standards over the last five years. While the 2024 test identified corrosion on the radiator support, the lack of subsequent advisories in the 2025 test suggests that this specific issue was either addressed or has not progressed to a point of structural failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per annum. The record shows a reliable pattern of annual MOT tests performed at regular intervals. This steady usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation which can often lead to perished seals or seized components. There is a notable jump in mileage between May 2022 and May 2023, where the car covered 11,600 miles in a single year, but usage has remained more predictable thereafter. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the front end, specifically the radiator support area flagged in 2024, to ensure active rust is not spreading. The 2023 failure noted both front tyres were worn on the edge and near the legal limit, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes and control arms. Given the mileage is now over 110,000, the buyer should also check the brake discs and calipers for wear, as these components typically reach the end of their service life at this age and distance.
