2008 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · CV58 PXJ

The 2008 Renault Clio presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent test. The October 2023 MOT at 108,853 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming the vehicle cleared inspection roughly 32 months before today's date. Prior tests in October 2022 and October 2021 also returned passes with no advisories, indicating no worsening mechanical trend across the observed period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an 18-year-old vehicle. The record shows 99,038 miles in October 2021, rising to 105,337 miles by October 2022, then 108,853 miles by October 2023. That equates to roughly 3,300 miles annually across the final two years, below the 6,047-mile lifetime average, suggesting lighter recent use. The October 2022 entry lists both a fail and a pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects logged, which points to an administrative or procedural anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical fault. Given the clean MOT history with zero advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, the previous owner appears to have maintained basic statutory compliance. The absence of flagged wear items means no recurring consumable or structural problems are evident in the official data. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Standing periods implied by low annual mileage can accelerate perishing of rubber components, degraded coolant, and flat-spotted tyres not captured by MOT tests. Verify underside structural integrity, brake caliper operation, and exhaust emissions in person, as the DVSA record offers no insight beyond the dated pass results.
