2015 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · CA65 ABK

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded across six consecutive MOT tests, the latest on 2025-06-09 at 41,464 miles. All tests from 2021 to 2025 show consistent compliance, indicating reliable maintenance practices. No advisories or failures suggest the owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the absence of recorded issues may reflect low mileage rather than exceptional condition. The lack of recurring faults implies no systemic mechanical or structural risks, but the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant closer scrutiny of components not assessed in standard MOTs. The mileage progression aligns with the vehicle’s 11-year lifespan, averaging approximately 3,769 miles annually. Gaps between tests exceed 12 months, with the most recent MOT in June 2025 leaving the next due in June 2026. This suggests the car has seen minimal use, potentially leading to prolonged inactivity that could affect fluid integrity, battery health, or rubber components. The steady increase from 27,982 miles in 2021 to 41,464 in 2025 indicates gradual usage, but the low total mileage may mask wear in drivetrain or suspension systems that typically degrade with time rather than distance. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as these can deteriorate during periods of inactivity. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, particularly if the vehicle has been parked for extended periods. The exhaust system’s structural integrity and emission controls require verification, as older vehicles may develop leaks or inefficiencies. Additionally, the underbody should be examined for rust, as low-mileage cars are not immune to environmental corrosion. While the MOT history is clean, the vehicle’s age and usage pattern necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection beyond standard tests.
