2009 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · DN59 AEE

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 23 January 2026 at 43,151 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean test results over the last three years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 2,538 miles per year. Between 31 January 2024 and 23 January 2026, the odometer rose from 35,197 to 43,151 miles. This indicates a steady, low-intensity usage pattern rather than long periods of stagnation. The lack of recorded defects across these intervals suggests the vehicle has avoided the typical wear and tear associated with higher-mileage examples. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from degradation of rubber components and fluid contamination due to underuse. A buyer should physically inspect the tyres for perishing or flat spots, even if the tread depth is legal. The brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, and the suspension bushes should be examined for dryness or cracking. Given the absence of flagged structural corrosion or suspension failures in the MOT history, the chassis appears sound on paper. However, the lack of advisories over several years is unusual for a seventeen-year-old vehicle. A manual check of the oil condition and a test of the battery health are recommended to ensure the car has not spent excessive time stationary between its annual tests.
