2001 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · CU51 SJR

The Renault Clio presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 2 February 2024 at 84,958 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable and free of escalating mechanical concern. The vehicle cleared its test without advisories on every pass, and the only blemishes are two administrative failures logged immediately before passes in January 2023 and January 2024, both showing zero recorded defects at 79,068 and 84,442 miles respectively. Annual mileage sits low for a 25-year-old car. The record shows 78,998 miles in February 2022, rising to 79,069 by February 2023, then jumping to 84,442 by January 2024 and 84,958 by 2 February 2024. That equates to roughly 3,400 miles per year overall, with the bulk of recent movement concentrated in the final twelve months. Such low accumulated distance suggests extended periods of standing rather than daily use, though the clean test outcomes give no indication of neglect in the submitted data. The two failure entries without defects point to documentation or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault. A buyer should still verify the bodywork and structural integrity in person, as a quarter-century Renault of this era is prone to sill corrosion and subframe rust unseen by MOT where surface condition remains within limits. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant a hands-on check for age-related perishing from inactivity. Given the sparse and clean record, no recurring consumable or serious mechanical trend is evident. Inspect tyres for flat-spotting from storage, confirm brake calipers are free, and validate the odometer against service stamps before purchase.
