2016 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · DP65 SXU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 May 2026 at 76,489 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of reactive repair in mid-2025 which was subsequently addressed. While the May 2026 test failed due to a tyre pressure monitoring system malfunction, the immediate re-test pass indicates this issue was resolved, suggesting the current owner is willing to rectify safety-critical faults promptly rather than allowing them to persist in a failing state. At 76,489 miles, the Clio has averaged approximately 7,650 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a ten-year-old car. The mileage progression is consistent, with an increase of 10,102 miles recorded between May 2024 and May 2025, and another 7,290 miles covered in the final year. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, though the age-related wear on rubber components and metalwork is likely to require ongoing attention. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the front sub-frame and brake lines. The May 2025 failure flagged corrosion on the sub-frame and the offside front brake pipe; although these were noted as not seriously weakened at the time, corrosion on Renault components is progressive and requires close monitoring. The previous failure of the nearside front suspension arm ball joint also indicates that the front geometry components are reaching the end of their service life. You should check for play in the steering joints and verify that the recently repaired wipers and TPMS system are fully functional, as these were recent points of failure.
