AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2008 Renault Clio passed its most recent MOT on 13 April 2026 at 72,693 miles with no defects recorded, confirming a stable maintenance trend after earlier failures. The vehicle has covered 72,693 miles over 18 years, averaging 4,038 miles per year; mileage increments show irregular use, with a notable rise of over 5,200 miles between the March 2022 and March 2023 tests, followed by modest annual increases and a minimal 318‑mile gain between the 2025 and 2026 tests, indicating periods of low usage. A buyer should inspect the steering rack gaiter and steering arm play noted in the 2021 test, verify tyre tread depth and condition given repeated near‑legal wear, examine the front brake disc for pitting and pad thickness, and check exhaust integrity for leaks and lambda sensor performance, while also confirming that the supplementary restraint system warning lamp is inactive.
