2015 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · D27 RBN

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-02 at 79,591 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2025-01-23, 2024-02-01, and 2022-12-22 also showed passes with no defects, suggesting consistent upkeep. The single failed test on 2024-01-30 at 64,616 miles is anomalous, as no defects were recorded, possibly reflecting a procedural error or a minor issue resolved before the subsequent pass. Overall, the absence of recurring faults implies the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard. The mileage of 79,591 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 7,236 miles, typical for a 11-year-old vehicle. A notable gap exists between the 2022-12-22 test (55,187 miles) and the 2024-02-01 test (64,616 miles), spanning 15 months with an increase of 9,429 miles, which may indicate periods of reduced use or infrequent motoring. The 2024-01-30 failed test occurred just days before the subsequent pass at the same mileage, raising questions about the consistency of testing but not necessarily the vehicle’s condition. A buyer should verify the suspension system for wear, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often degrade over time. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but a physical inspection of brake discs and calipers is recommended to confirm no hidden corrosion or binding. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust or corrosion can develop in older vehicles despite clean MOT records. The lack of advisories suggests no immediate risks, but a thorough pre-purchase check is advised to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
