Our Verdict
A sensible choice for a small petrol hatchback, provided the recent MOT failures are addressed. The vehicle shows a consistent testing pattern and has no recorded defects in its most recent pass.
When viewing this specific HN11WLF registration, check why the vehicle failed its MOT in both February 2025 and February 2026 just days before passing. While the records do not specify the defects, these frequent 'fail-then-pass' cycles suggest minor maintenance items are being addressed just in time for the test. Ask the seller for the specific reasons for these recent failures.
Ensure you check the service history to see if the 1.2L engine has had regular oil changes. For this age of Clio, also verify the condition of the timing belt (cambelt), as this is a critical maintenance item for this engine type. Negotiate based on the fact that while the recent MOT is clean, the history shows a repetitive need for repairs to meet minimum standards.
The 1149cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group, making it relatively affordable for newer drivers. Fuel economy for this model is typically moderate for a small hatchback, and the tax band for a 2011 1.2L petrol engine is usually quite economical.
Maintenance costs for a Clio of this age are expected to be standard for the segment. However, be mindful of the model's aggregate failure trends, which suggest potential future costs related to suspension arms, headlamps, or exhaust components. An estimated annual running cost of £1,100-£1,400 is reasonable, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and basic upkeep.
Given the aggregate data for Renault Clios, pay close attention to the suspension arms and the exhaust system during your inspection. These are noted as top failure reasons for this model across the wider dataset. Check for any signs of play in the steering or unusual noises when driving over bumps.
Additionally, inspect the headlamps for clarity and function, as this is another common failure point. While the most recent MOT in February 2026 recorded no defects, the fact that the vehicle failed just five days prior at 82,022 miles warrants a close look at the tyres, brakes, and lights to ensure everything is currently in working order.
This 2011 silver Renault Clio 1.2L petrol has covered 82,024 miles since its first registration in June 2011. The MOT history shows a pattern of failures immediately preceding successful passes in both 2025 and 2026, though no specific defect types were recorded in those instances. With an average annual mileage of approximately 6,835, it sits slightly above the model aggregate average of 5,723 miles.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 72.3% average MOT pass rate, with suspension, lighting, and exhaust being common areas of concern.
