2006 Renault Clio 1.6L Petrol · FP06 AEM

The 2006 Renault Clio presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 17 July 2025 at 54,796 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. A buyer should note the odd administrative pattern of a fail and pass logged on the same date in both 2024 and 2025, though neither entry lists any defect, suggesting clerical or presentation anomalies rather than mechanical concern. Recorded mileage shows light use for a twenty-year-old car. The odometer read 49,872 miles at the May 2023 test, rose to 51,789 miles by May 2024, and reached 54,796 miles by July 2025. That equates to roughly 2,740 miles per year, confirming gentle annual accumulation with no rapid spikes. The sparse record spans only three calendar years of tests, leaving long unrecorded periods earlier in the vehicle's life open to conjecture about storage or infrequent use. Given the absence of any flagged items such as worn suspension bushes, corroded structures, or failing brake discs, the Clio shows no evidence of recurring consumable neglect or serious mechanical risk in the data. Low standing mileage, however, can mask perished rubber components and dormant corrosion. A buyer should physically inspect subframe and sills for structural rust, check suspension arms and coil springs for cracking, and verify brake calipers are free from binding after prolonged inactivity. The same-day fail-pass pairs in 2024 and 2025 warrant a V5C and DVSA confirmation to rule out mileage discrepancy or test centre error. Otherwise, the documented history implies a lightly used vehicle with consistent test compliance and no outstanding advisories at 54,796 miles.
