2010 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · DP10 EBX

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status following a clean pass in its most recent test on April 2026 at 108,318 miles. This represents an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous two years where the vehicle required immediate rectification. While the car suffered failures in 2024 and 2025, the subsequent passes without any recorded defects indicate that the owner has addressed the necessary mechanical issues promptly. The lack of advisories on the latest certificate suggests that the vehicle is currently well-maintained and meeting operational standards. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,770 miles per year. The data shows a very steady accumulation of miles over the 12-month intervals between the annual tests. For instance, the car covered 532 miles between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 582 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. This low-intensity usage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based parts if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. Despite the recent clean record, a buyer must verify the specific components that caused the failures in 2024 and 2025, as the provided data does not detail the nature of those previous faults. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines to ensure the previous issues are not returning. Given the age of the Clio, close attention to structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential to confirm that the low mileage has not masked underlying rust issues.
