Our Verdict
This 2010 Renault Clio presents a generally tidy MOT history with recent passes, though buyers should note the recurring pattern of initial test failures followed by prompt retests. With 84,348 miles on the clock, it offers straightforward, budget-friendly motoring provided the service history backs up the test record.
When inspecting this Clio, look closely at the paperwork to understand why the 2024 and 2025 tests initially resulted in failures, given that no specific defects were logged on the test certificates. Verify the physical condition of wear-and-tear items such as brakes, tyres, and suspension components, as these are common areas for older small hatchbacks.
Negotiate on the basis of any gaps in the service history and check that all electrical features inside the cabin operate correctly. A comprehensive physical inspection by an independent mechanic is recommended to confirm the car's underlying condition prior to purchase.
The 1149cc petrol engine is inexpensive to fuel for daily commuting and short urban trips. Insurance groupings for this era of Clio are typically modest, making it an accessible choice for younger or newer drivers.
Road tax falls into a standard bracket for vehicles of this engine size and age. Aside from routine servicing and consumable replacements like tyres and brake pads, ongoing maintenance should remain affordable.
Pay close attention to the suspension, brakes, and steering components during a test drive, as these are typical wear points for a 2010 hatchback with over 84,000 miles. Check the bodywork around the black paint for any hidden corrosion, car park dings, or signs of poor previous repairs.
Verify the operation of all interior electronics, including the heating system, windows, and lighting, and ensure the engine idles smoothly from a cold start.
First registered in March 2010, this black Renault Clio is powered by a 1149cc petrol engine and has covered 84,348 miles as of its July 2025 MOT test. The recorded MOT history shows a consistent pattern from 2023 to 2025 where tests initially resulted in failures before passing shortly after, all without specific advisory items recorded. This mileage is typical for a 16-year-old hatchback of this class.
No aggregate reliability statistics are currently available for this model generation, meaning buyers must rely entirely on this specific vehicle's documentation.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2010 model year cars.
- Wiper linkage seizureModerate
The wiper linkage pivots seize through corrosion and lack of lubrication, overloading the motor and eventually leaving the wipers painfully slow or completely inoperative.
- Front coil spring snappingModerate
A classic UK Renault MOT issue. The bottom coil can corrode and snap, sometimes unnoticed until an MOT or until it damages a tyre.
- Key-card and UCH electrical faultsModerate
The key card itself and the associated body-control electronics can cause intermittent unlocking, non-starts and random electrical quirks.
