2014 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · YP64 AEA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 29 December 2025 at 88,845 miles. That test recorded a series of near‑fail items – front inner tyre tread at the legal limit, corroded upper front suspension rubber gaiters, a severely deteriorated CV boot, and a TPMS warning – indicating a modest decline after several years of clean results. Mileage has risen from 21,041 miles in November 2017 to 88,845 miles in December 2025, averaging roughly 7,400 miles per year. The increments between each annual test (e.g., 56,560 miles in October 2021 to 64,315 miles in November 2022) show a steady, typical usage pattern with no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps. The odometer reading aligns with the vehicle’s twelve‑year age, suggesting neither excessive wear nor unusually low utilisation. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the front tyres, confirming that tread depth exceeds the legal minimum and that sidewall wear is uniform. Inspection of the front upper suspension should focus on the rubber gaiters for any cracking or corrosion that could affect durability. The near‑side front CV joint boot requires close examination for cracks or oil leakage, as a compromised boot can precipitate joint failure. Confirm that the TPMS indicator can be cleared and that the sensor functions correctly. While the MOT history shows no brake, exhaust, or structural defects, a visual check of brake discs, pads, and overall chassis rust remains prudent. Addressing the identified wear items before purchase will help maintain the vehicle’s current roadworthiness and prevent imminent component failures.
