2013 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · DA62 YTM

The Renault Clio presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 5 June 2025 at 53,559 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, showing clean passes in May 2023 and May 2024 alongside the 2025 result. Two failed tests appear on the record at identical mileages to subsequent passes on the same days, which points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, as no defects were logged on either failure. The mileage pattern confirms very light use for a 2013 vehicle. The odometer read 50,298 miles at the 26 May 2023 test, rose to 51,837 miles by 28 May 2024, and reached 53,559 miles at the 31 May and 5 June 2025 tests. That equates to roughly 1,200 miles annually over the recorded period, well below typical averages. Such low accumulation over thirteen years suggests extended standing periods, which can allow corrosion, seized brake components, and degraded rubber bushes to develop even where the test sheet stays clean. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the Clio's underbody and suspension mounting points, since MOT advisories for structural corrosion or worn suspension bushes are absent from the record yet low-mileage cars left idle often hide such defects. The brake discs and calipers warrant close checks for binding or surface pitting after prolonged disuse. Verify the 2025 failure-to-pass sequence with the selling garage to confirm no suppressed defect history exists behind those same-day entries. Given the sparse, defect-free record, the vehicle shows no recurring mechanical trend requiring corrective action. Prospective owners should budget for consumables such as tyres and wiper blades on condition, but the DVSA data alone gives no evidence of worsening wear or serious structural risk.
