2015 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · SE65 FEM

The vehicle passed its latest MOT on 10 June 2026 at 63,406 miles with no defects recorded, confirming that it is presently roadworthy; however, the same day’s earlier failure on 10 June 2026 highlighted excessive wear of the offside front lower suspension arm pin or bush and excessive play in the nearside front track rod end ball joint, indicating that the maintenance trend is not stable but shows persistent suspension issues that have recurred across multiple tests. The mileage record shows a gradual increase over recent years: from 48,127 miles in June 2023 to 54,130 miles in June 2024 (6,003 miles), then to 58,853 miles in June 2025 (4,723 miles) and finally to 63,406 miles in June 2026 (4,553 miles), reflecting consistent use after a period of lower annual mileage in the early 2020s, which suggests the car may have been stored for several years before 2022 while still being 11 years old with an average of about 5,800 miles per year. A buyer should inspect the suspension components closely, looking for worn bushings, ball joints and track rod ends that have repeatedly shown excessive play or wear, and verify that the front and rear brakes are not binding and that pads or shoes are within service limits; the recurring tyre wear close to the legal limit and the minor exhaust leak also merit attention, as does the corrosion observed on the rear shock absorbers, to assess overall structural integrity and ensure no hidden mechanical risks remain.
