2008 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · FN08 YHT

The Renault Clio presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 23 October 2025 at 127,739 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recent record. The most recent test showed no defects, though a failed test two days earlier on 21 October 2025 at 127,737 miles also recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in 2024 and 2023 passed cleanly with no advisories logged. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an 18 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,097 miles per year against the 127,739 miles recorded. The odometer moved from 98,109 miles at the November 2023 test to 114,679 miles by October 2024, then to 127,739 miles by October 2025, reflecting steady yearly use of around 12,000 to 13,000 miles with no standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, showing only clean passes and the two anomaly entries in late 2025. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points given the vehicle's age and the absence of any advisory history that might otherwise reveal gradual wear. The clean MOT record does not confirm the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions beyond the test day snapshot. The repeated no-defect fail on 21 October 2025 followed by a pass suggests the previous owner addressed a non-mechanical rejection promptly, but offers no evidence of skipped consumable upkeep. Given the lack of recorded advisories across four years, the Clio's history implies conscientious basic maintenance rather than deferred work. Physical checks of tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and underbody rust remain sensible before purchase, as the MOT entries alone cannot certify components that were within tolerance at test but near limits.
