Question 3

What should I check when buying a used 2015 Holden Captiva in NZ?

Accepted Answer

Identify Captiva 5 vs 7, petrol vs 2.2 diesel, FWD vs AWD. Diesel: chain-replacement invoice from a specialist or walk. Check ATF condition, cooling leaks and oil level on petrols. Raise and fold the third row; look for damp and broken latches. RUC on diesels; PPSR for finance/write-off. Request as much service history as possible — regular servicing matters more than promises from the seller. Run a PPSR check and review WOF history before buying. Compare condition and service records across listings — the best-value example is often the best-kept one, not the cheapest. Holden exited NZ in 2020 — budget independent GM/Isuzu specialists for ongoing parts and servicing.
