Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a lo
When viewing this specific 1.2L petrol Clio, focus on verifying the service history to complement the clean MOT record. While the MOTs show no defects, they do not confirm regular oil changes or timing belt replacements, which are critical for this engine type.
Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle; at over 20 years old, rubber components like bushings and hoses may be due for replacement regardless of the recent clean MOT results. Ensure you check the tyre tread and condition, as 'tyre' is a common failure reason for this model across the wider dataset.
The 1149cc petrol engine is designed for economy, typically placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it affordable for new drivers or budget-conscious commuters.
Maintenance costs for a Clio of this era are generally low due to the abundance of parts, though you should budget for routine consumables. Given the average annual mileage of 5,737 for this model, this vehicle's usage pattern suggests it has been driven more than the typical example, which may impact long-term maintenance frequency.
Despite the lack of recent MOT failures, you should pay close attention to the suspension and steering components. The aggregate data for Renault Clios highlights suspension arms as a frequent failure point, so listen for knocks or knocks over uneven surfaces during a test drive.
Additionally, check the headlamps for clarity and functionality, as 'headlamp' is a common reason for failure in this model group. Finally, inspect the tyres for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues or worn suspension components that haven't yet triggered an MOT advisory.
This 2005 silver Renault Clio 1.2 petrol has covered 102,788 miles since its first registration in March 2005. The MOT history is notable for having no recorded defects or failures across the five most recent tests dating back to 2021. While the mileage is higher than the model's average annual figure, the recent continuity of passes suggests a consistent level of compliance with MOT standards.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 72.4% average MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to tyres, headlamps, and suspension arms.
