RENAULT CLIO2013 · 1.5L Diesel

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of no recorded defects across its most recent tests. The latest pass on April 22, 2025, at 71,161 miles, confirms the car met all minimum legal standards for safety and emissions. While the record shows two failures on the same day as the passes in April 2025 and April 2023, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified instantly during the test. The mileage is notably low for a thirteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,474 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between April 2023 and March 2024, where the odometer rose from 46,276 to 59,112 miles. Since then, the vehicle has covered another 12,049 miles leading up to the April 2025 test. This pattern indicates a transition from light use to more regular driving in the last three years. Because the MOT history is devoid of advisories or failures related to mechanical wear, there is no data to suggest recurring faults with the suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust system. The absence of mentioned corrosion is positive for a car of this vintage. A buyer should still perform a physical check for perishables that do not always trigger a failure, such as the condition of the tyre sidewalls and the fluidity of the clutch pedal. Given the low overall mileage and the clean test sheets, the vehicle appears well maintained. The primary focus for a physical inspection should be identifying any signs of seizure in the brake calipers or degradation of rubber seals, which can occur when a vehicle spends long periods standing. Check for any oil leaks around the engine bay to ensure the low mileage has not masked a lack of regular oil changes.
