2010 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · AF60 OJS

The 2010 Renault Clio presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 23 September 2025 at 136,313 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the available record. The tester logged no defects at that examination. A failed attempt on the same date at 136,310 miles shows no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared on the subsequent pass minutes later. Annual mileage sits close to typical expectation for a sixteen-year-old car, averaging roughly 8,520 miles per year from the 114,128 miles seen on 20 September 2022 to 136,313 miles in September 2025. The largest single-year movement came between October 2023 and October 2024, when the odometer rose from 116,518 to 129,486 miles, a 12,968-mile spell above the norm. The record itself is sparse and clean, with no advisories or repairs noted at any stage from 2022 onward. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and mileage, as the MOT sheets disclose nothing but cannot confirm hidden corrosion or wear. The absence of structural or mechanical flags across five consecutive tests suggests previous owners kept basic statutory compliance, though no evidence exists of proactive upkeep beyond the minimum. Given the twin 23 September 2025 entries, verify the V5C and MOT certificate to confirm the failure was a clerical matter and not a concealed defect. Treat the clean history as a positive but not a substitute for a workshop check on exhaust emissions and underbody integrity before purchase.
