2019 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · FM68 AAZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of minor maintenance issues. The most recent test on 16 February 2026 at 41,540 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a successful retest in February 2025 at 34,887 miles, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a high standard of compliance. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2019 model, averaging approximately 5,934 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental growth between tests, moving from 16,166 miles in February 2022 to 41,540 miles in February 2026. This pattern suggests regular, light usage rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in vehicles that sit idle for extended periods. A single period of mechanical neglect occurred in February 2024 when the vehicle failed at 28,540 miles. The tester flagged several consumable wear items, including front brake pads below the 1.5 mm legal limit and both front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The failure also noted ineffective nearside and offside windscreen wipers. While these issues were resolved by the subsequent pass, they indicate a lapse in routine maintenance during that specific period. A prospective buyer should verify that the front brake pads and tyres were replaced following the February 2024 failure. Given the low mileage and the specific nature of the previous faults, a physical inspection should focus on the remaining tread depth of the tyres and the thickness of the brake pads to ensure the current maintenance trend remains consistent. Checking the condition of the wiper blades and the integrity of the windscreen is also advisable to confirm the previous wiper issues were fully rectified.
