2013 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · CU13 LSL

The Renault Clio presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 March 2026 at 80,951 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 6 March 2025 at 77,682 miles confirms the vehicle has cleared consecutive annual examinations without outstanding advisories. The record shows no worsening mechanical faults across the observed period. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2013 vehicle, averaging roughly 6,227 miles per year against the 80,951 miles recorded. The jump from 68,157 miles on 6 March 2024 to 77,682 miles on 6 March 2025 equals 9,525 miles in that year, above the long-term average but not abnormal. The two failed entries on 6 March 2024 at 68,157 miles and 6 March 2025 at 77,678 miles show no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentational failures rather than mechanical rejection, with immediate passes logged the same day at near-identical mileages. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the car's thirteen-year age. The clean MOT history offers no flagged wear on consumables such as tyres or wiper blades, yet DVSA tests capture only test-day condition and exclude hidden structural fatigue. Previous owners appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, clearing each test without advisories once administrative fails were resolved. The sparse but clean record implies light use and routine presentation, though lack of recorded advisories means in-person checks on exhaust emissions and binding calipers remain prudent before purchase.
