RENAULT CLIO2013 · 1.5L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 101,964 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just four miles prior on the same day. This immediate rectification suggests a minor administrative error or a trivial component adjustment that was resolved instantly. Since the 2022 test, the car has maintained a clean record without any advisories or mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. Between June 2022 and June 2025, the car covered 25,418 miles, showing a steady accumulation of roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles annually. This level of use suggests regular operation, which is often preferable for mechanical components and seals that can degrade during long periods of inactivity. The lack of significant gaps in mileage indicates the vehicle has been used at and predictable rather than sitting stationary for extended months. Given the clean MOT history regarding recorded advisories, a physical inspection should focus on common wear items for a Clio of this age. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often show fatigue around the 100,000-mile mark. Checking the brake discs for signs of pitting or uneven wear is also advisable, although the record does not flag any binding issues in the past. Close inspection of the structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches remains essential to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed since the last annual check.
