2008 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · HT08 DMF

The 2023‑01‑04 MOT at 77,901 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy at the time of testing. The earlier same‑date failure, also showing no defects, appears to be a clerical duplication, but the latest outcome indicates a stable maintenance record. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 77,901 equates to roughly 4,300 miles per year, indicating relatively light usage; however the jump from 73,360 miles in the January 2022 test to 77,901 miles in January 2023 shows a modest acceleration of use in the preceding year. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or binding, examine the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and scrutinise the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust or corrosion that could compromise integrity. Although the MOT history shows no recorded faults, the recurring nature of the two tests at identical mileage suggests that any underlying issues may be subtle and merit close visual and functional verification during a physical inspection.
