2011 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · LP60 ULW

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a pass on 11 August 2025 at 77,468 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories. While the car failed its tests on 1 August 2024 and 11 August 2025, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved immediately on the same day. The mileage is notably low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 5,165 miles per year. Between 11 August 2023 and 11 August 2025, the odometer increased from 58,497 to 77,468 miles. This indicates a steady usage pattern of approximately 9,500 miles per annum over the last two years, which is higher than the lifetime average but remains well within expected limits for a daily driver. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean and devoid of advisories, there are no recurring mechanical failures to flag. The absence of mentions regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust leaks is positive. However, low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perished rubber components or seized brake calipers due to inactivity. A buyer should physically inspect the tyre date codes and check for any signs of perished seals or leaking shock absorbers. Given the age of the vehicle, a manual check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis is recommended. The DVSA records provide no evidence of rust, but the 15-year age of the chassis makes this a primary point of inspection. Ensure the engine oil and coolant show no signs of contamination, as the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to moisture buildup in the engine internals.
