2013 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · AF13 SOH

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean bill of health in its most recent inspection. The May 2025 test at 87,670 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car is currently well-maintained and free from immediate mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 6,744 miles per year. The distance covered between the May 2023 test at 74,517 miles and the May 2025 test at 87,670 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 6,500 miles annually. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of stagnation that would suggest neglect or hidden drivetrain issues. The history shows two instances where the vehicle failed its MOT on the same day it eventually passed, specifically on 12 May 2023 and 11 May 2024. While the record does not specify the reasons for these same-day failures, they often indicate minor consumable issues like blown bulbs or wiper blades that were rectified immediately. The absence of any recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for this model that may not trigger an MOT failure. Check the condition of the brake pads and the depth of the tyre treads, as these consumables are not flagged in the clean records. A manual check for any signs of chassis corrosion or leaks from the engine bay will confirm if the mechanical upkeep matches the clean DVSA data.
