2008 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · EK08 RWY

The 2008 Renault Clio presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 July 2025 at 72,705 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior successful tests in July 2024, July 2023, and January 2021 likewise noted no advisories or faults. The only blemish is a failed test on 19 July 2023 recorded at zero miles with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or presentation error rather than a mechanical defect. At roughly 18 years old the car shows 72,705 recorded miles, an average of about 4,039 miles per year. The odometer moved only 3,444 miles between the January 2021 test at 64,946 miles and the July 2023 test at 65,400 miles, then 3,861 miles to July 2024 at 69,261 miles, and 3,444 miles to July 2025 at 72,705 miles. This low, steady accumulation suggests light use with possible long standing periods. The clean record across five tests means no consumable wear items such as tyres, brake discs, or suspension bushes were flagged, though sparse testing between 2021 and 2023 leaves a gap in verified condition. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion, given the vehicle's age and the risk of hidden rust on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points not captured by a pass with no defects. The zero-mile failure in July 2023 warrants confirmation that the correct mileage was later recorded and the V5C aligns with the 72,705 shown. Check the coil springs, suspension bushes, and brake calipers for binding or fatigue caused by low-mileage standing. Verify exhaust emissions and handbrake efficiency on a cold start. The history implies a lightly used car with basic upkeep, but the sparse early-2020s record means in-person checks remain essential before purchase.
