2014 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · FD63 VLE

This Renault Clio presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 June 2025 at 92,330 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test five days prior on 11 June 2025, the record lists no specific defects for that failure, which suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 7,694 miles per year. There is a notable increase in annual usage over the last few years. Between 2 June 2022 and 1 June 2023, the car covered 11,887 miles. This climbed to 6,764 miles by June 2024, followed by a further 8,034 miles leading into the June 2025 test. These figures indicate regular, moderate use without any periods of prolonged standing that typically cause seal perishment or battery degradation. The absence of any advisories or failures across five years of testing is unusual for a twelve year old vehicle. No mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or brake disc pitting appear in the record. This lack of data suggests the previous owner may have carried out preventative maintenance outside of the MOT cycle to ensure first-time passes. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. While the MOT record is clean, these tests are not exhaustive mechanical health checks. Focus on checking the condition of the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these consumables may be nearing the end of their life given the 8,000 miles covered since the last pass. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay that a standard MOT tester might overlook if they do not affect emissions or safety.
