2020 Renault Clio Iconic TCE 1.0L Petrol · FE11 LEV

The 2025‑10‑09 MOT at 62,911 miles confirms the vehicle remains road‑legal, but the test record shows a modest decline in mechanical condition compared with earlier examinations. The near‑side front suspension arm ball joint exhibited slight play (5.3.4 (a) (i)) and the front brake pads were recorded as wearing thin (1.1.13 (a) (ii)). These findings indicate a stable maintenance history with emerging wear rather than a worsening trend. Mileage has risen from 41,840 miles in the August 2023 test to 53,506 miles by October 2024, an increase of 11,666 miles in one year, and then to 62,911 miles by October 2025, adding another 9,405 miles. The annual increments are slightly above the typical 10,485‑mile average for a six‑year‑old car, yet the absence of long idle periods is evident from the continuous record. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension arm for excessive play, measure front brake pad thickness and examine the associated discs for scoring or corrosion, and verify that the tyre tread depth and wear pattern are even. Particular attention to any rust on the chassis rails or suspension mounting points is advisable, given the slight suspension defect noted in the latest test.
