2022 Renault Captur E-Tech Engineered HEV A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · YY72 FGP

A consistent track record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the inspection on 30 March 2026 resulting in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This absence of flagged issues reflects a lack of recorded mechanical failures or wear-related concerns according to the DVSA criteria at the time of the test. The recorded mileage of 18,153 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 4,538 miles per year. This usage profile typically results in less physical wear on the suspension components and drivetrain than is found in higher-mileage vehicles, reflecting a pattern of light use over the last four years. With no defects recorded in the MOT history, the test drive should focus on the operational smoothness of the E-Tech hybrid system. Particular attention should be paid to the transition between the electric and petrol power sources to ensure there is no excessive shudder or hesitation, and the transmission should be monitored for any unusual noises during gear shifts. A physical check should confirm the condition of the brake discs to ensure no significant surface corrosion has developed, which can occur with low-mileage usage and may manifest as pedal judder. The steering and suspension should be assessed for any knocks or play during low-speed maneuvers to verify that the components remain in the condition indicated by the clean test record.
