2016 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · HT16 VHO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes over the last several years. The most recent test conducted in November 2024 at 71,124 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories. This follows a period of consistent results in 2022 and 2023, indicating that the previous owners maintained the primary mechanical and safety components to a passing standard. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use urban vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per annum. There is a notable gap in the records between December 2020 and October 2022, during which the vehicle covered roughly 14,000 miles. Since the 2024 test, the car has covered approximately 6,000 miles, suggesting the current usage remains steady and relatively low. This low annual mileage generally reduces the wear-tear on high-stress components such as the clutch, turbo, and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the MOT record is devoid of recurring faults, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of components prone to age-related degradation. Given the lack of advisories in recent tests, the tester did not find significant structural corrosion or failing brake components, but rubber elements like suspension bushes and hoses can crack over a decade despite low mileage. Inspect the brake discs for pitting and check the chassis for surface rust, as low-mileage cars often suffer from surface oxidation if left stationary for extended periods.
