2010 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · EA10 AAK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile following its most recent MOT pass on 2 April 2025 at 52,153 miles. While the record shows two previous failures in 2023 and 2024, the most recent inspection recorded no defects, suggesting that previous issues were successfully rectified. The trend indicates a move toward consistent compliance, as the vehicle has maintained a clean certificate for the last two testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2010 model, averaging approximately 3,260 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 45,256 miles in March 2023 to 52,153 miles in April 2025. This low annual usage suggests the car has seen light road use, though such low mileage can sometimes lead to issues with rubber components or seals due to extended periods of inactivity. Because the MOT record does not specify the nature of the failures in March 2023 and April 2024, a physical inspection is required to confirm what was corrected. You should specifically examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drive shafts to ensure no recurring mechanical wear exists. Given the low mileage and age, check for any signs of corrosion on the underside or exhaust system, as these often develop even in vehicles that are rarely driven. The buyer should also verify the condition of all consumables, including tyres, brake discs, and wiper blades, which are not always captured in a standard MOT pass. Ensure the service history aligns with the low mileage to confirm that oil changes and fluid flushes have been performed regularly despite the infrequent use.
