2019 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · AF68 NTY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clear improving trend following initial mechanical setbacks. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 April 2025 at 34,244 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the issues identified in previous years were successfully rectified. This clean sheet suggests the car is currently in good operating order and is not suffering from persistent mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. Between the May 2023 test at 23,195 miles and the May 2024 test at 28,916 miles, the car covered 5,721 miles, showing consistent usage. While low mileage generally means less wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components such as suspension bushes and sidewalls if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. While the current record is clean, the recurring failures in 2023 and 2024 indicate that specific components required attention in the past. Since the MOT record does not detail the specific reasons for those failures, a buyer must physically inspect the brake discs for signs of corrosion or pitting, which is common on low-use vehicles. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the tyres for age-related cracking and ensuring that the low mileage has not masked material degradation in the rubber compound.
