2011 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · KV61 AEJ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 20 December 2025 at 119,872 miles, confirming its legal roadworthiness status as of the most recent inspection. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has successfully passed its last three consecutive annual tests without any recorded advisories or defects. While the record shows brief failures immediately preceding the successful passes in October 2023 and December 2025, the lack of specific defect data suggests these were likely administrative or minor rectifications rather than systemic mechanical failures. The recorded mileage of 119,872 over fifteen years averages approximately 7,991 miles per annum, which is consistent with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. The accumulation remains steady, with roughly 4,389 miles covered between September 2024 and December 2025, indicating the car has remained in regular operation rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This consistent usage profile generally benefits mechanical health, as it prevents the premature degradation of seals and fluids often associated with long-term storage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking components, as these are common wear points for a Renault Clio at this mileage. Although the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a thorough check of the coil springs for fractures and the wishbone bushes for excessive play or perishing rubber. Examine the brake discs and pads for signs of scoring or thinning, and verify that the handbrake mechanism engages firmly. Given the absence of corrosion warnings in the recent history, a visual check of the sills and floor pan remains a prudent step to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis.
