RENAULT CLIO2016 · 1.5L Diesel

This Renault Clio presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 24 December 2025 at 43,052 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to October 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,305 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between November 2024 and December 2025, where the odometer rose from 27,788 to 43,052 miles. This jump of over 15,000 miles in just over a year contrasts with the previous three years of light use, where the vehicle covered only about 7,000 miles between October 2021 and November 2024. Because the MOT history is devoid of advisories, there are no recurring mechanical faults to flag. The absence of mentions regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or exhaust leaks is unusual for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber seals, the condition of the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, and ensure the battery has not suffered from the periods of low usage seen between 2021 and 2024. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed according to manufacturer intervals despite the low annual mileage. While the DVSA records show no structural integrity issues or corrosion, a manual check of the underbody is advised to confirm no hidden rust has developed during the car's quieter years.
