2013 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · SJ12 BAD

This Renault Captur presents a stable and exceptionally clean maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 23 March 2026 at 85,421 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over several years, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 6,571 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady, with 13,244 miles added between the April 2023 test at 66,753 miles and the March 2026 test at 85,421 miles. A minor anomaly occurred on 3 April 2025, where the vehicle failed and passed within a single mile at 79,694 and 79,695 miles respectively. The lack of recorded defects for that failure suggests a clerical error or a trivial rectification that did not warrant a detailed entry. Because the MOT history is devoid of advisories, there are no specific recurring faults to flag. The record shows no history of suspension bush wear, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust leaks. However, the absence of advisories over five years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and may suggest the previous owner performed preventative maintenance outside of the MOT cycle. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these consumables are often replaced just before a test to ensure a clean pass. Checking for chassis corrosion in typical Renault weak points is advised, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the structural integrity beyond a pass. The overall data suggests a well-maintained vehicle with a predictable usage pattern.
