2007 Renault Clio 1.4L Petrol · CU07 UTF

The Renault Clio presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 28 October 2025 at 99,001 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recent record. The vehicle cleared its final test with no defects logged, though the preceding day saw a failure at 98,995 miles that also recorded no defects, a pattern repeated in September 2024 when a pass on the 23rd at 98,310 miles followed a defect-free failure on the 20th at 98,300 miles. Such back-to-back failure-then-pass outcomes with no advisories suggest administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than escalating mechanical decline. Recorded mileage sits at 99,001 against a 2007 build, equating to roughly 5,200 miles per year and marking this Clio as low-use for its nineteen years. The history shows minimal accumulation: 97,106 miles in October 2023, 98,300 by September 2024, and 99,001 by October 2025, a gain of under 2,000 miles across two years. Sparse entries and the absence of any flagged wear indicate either light local running or extended periods off the road, with no rapid accrual to suggest drivetrain fatigue. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and the unexplained failure entries that carried no recorded defects. The tester logged no corrosion, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity concerns across the five tests, yet standing time implicit in low mileage can conceal perished rubber components and binding calipers not surfaced by the MOT. Verify the reason for the two anomaly failures and confirm the vehicle has not suffered moisture-related degradation during idle periods.
