2016 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · CA65 AOO

The 2016 Renault Clio presents a clean bill of health through its entire MOT history, with the most recent test on 6 November 2025 at 37,091 miles passing with zero defects. Every recorded test back to January 2022 has returned a pass with no advisories or failures, indicating a stable and well-maintained vehicle. There are no recurring faults, no escalating wear patterns, and no evidence of deferred maintenance. This is a strong record for a ten-year-old supermini. The mileage profile is notably low. At 37,091 miles over roughly ten years, the annual average sits around 3,709 miles, well below the typical UK annual figure of 7,000 to 8,000 miles. The progression between tests is consistent: approximately 3,600 miles between January and December 2022, around 4,600 miles through 2023, and roughly 4,900 miles through 2024. The jump from December 2024 at 32,152 miles to November 2025 at 37,091 miles represents about 4,939 miles in under eleven months, suggesting slightly increased use in the most recent period. No gaps or anomalies appear in the record. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. Low-mileage vehicles that stand for extended periods can develop flat-spotted tyres, seized brake calipers, and deteriorated rubber components such as suspension bushes and drive shaft gaiters. The tyres deserve close attention, as infrequent use rather than high mileage may be the primary wear factor. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion on brake lines, exhaust hangers, and subframe mounting points, particularly given the vehicle's age. Check the condition of the exhaust system and catalytic converter, as short-trip driving can accelerate internal condensation and corrosion. A test drive should confirm smooth brake operation with no pulling or binding, and the suspension should be listened for over speed bumps to rule out worn dampers or bushings that may not yet present a measurable MOT failure.
