2014 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · A7 BLN

The Renault Clio presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 25 November 2025 at 69,705 miles, with no defects recorded. The underlying maintenance trend is stable. The vehicle cleared every test that proceeded to a full examination, and the only blemishes are two administrative failures logged on 6 December 2023 at 62,001 miles and 25 November 2025 at 69,703 miles where the tester recorded no defects. These appear to be documentation or presentation errors rather than mechanical rejections, so no worsening fault pattern exists. At roughly 12 years old the Clio shows 69,705 miles, an average of about 5,809 miles per year. That is low for its age. Annual increments stayed modest: 62,003 miles in December 2023, 65,668 miles in November 2024, and 69,705 miles in November 2025. The owner added only around 3,665 miles across the last two years. Such low use often means longer standing periods, which can encourage perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, and surface corrosion on brake discs and underbody members even when the MOT stays clean. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe mounts given the vehicle's age and intermittent use. The clean MOT record offers no advisories on brake discs, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions, yet the 2023 and 2025 zero-defect failures hint at lax presentation by the seller rather than rigorous preparation. Check for structural rust at sills and suspension turrets, and confirm tyre sidewalls have not cracked from storage. The history implies a keeper who covered few miles and avoided major repair bills, but who may have skipped pre-test grooming. With no recorded advisories across four passed tests, the Clio's mechanical integrity looks sound on paper. Verify in person that low mileage has not masked degraded consumables before purchase.
