2015 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · XV15 HAZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of consistent passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 22 August 2025 at 84,876 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just two days prior. This immediate rectification suggests an administrative oversight or a minor consumable issue that was resolved instantly, rather than a systemic mechanical failure, as no specific defects were logged on the failed entry itself. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 62,318 miles and August 2025 at 84,876 miles, the car covered 22,558 miles, showing steady operation. This low rate of travel is generally beneficial for components like rubber bushings and suspension elements, as it avoids the accelerated degradation associated with high-mileage commuting while preventing the risks linked to long periods of inactivity. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or repeated mechanical faults, a buyer should focus on the standard wear points for a Renault Capture of this era. At nearly 85,000 miles, a physical inspection should prioritise the condition of the front coil springs and wish arm bushes, as these often show fatigue at this interval. Checking the brake discs for thinning and inspecting the structural integrity of the underside for corrosion is also prudent, though the clean history does not indicate any prior failures or structural weaknesses.
