2016 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · MA16 FWS

The vehicle currently maintains a good roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 December 2025 at 69,802 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all statutory safety requirements. While the vehicle suffered a failure in December 2024, the immediate re-test success twenty-four hours later suggests the owner addressed the necessary repairs promptly to return the car to a legal standard. The car has covered approximately 69,802 miles over its ten-year life, averaging roughly 7,000 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent with light annual commuting, which typically reduces the strain on the drivetrain and engine components. The data shows a consistent annual testing interval, with mileage increases of approximately 7,600 miles between 2022 and 2023, and another 10,000 miles in the year leading to the final tests. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods of neglect. Given the lack of recorded mechanical advisories in the three most recent tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on rubber-based components that age regardless of mileage. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from perish over time. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can lead to rust buildup on the metal surfaces. The structural integrity of the chassis and lower sills should be verified for emerging rust, though the record shows no history of structural failure.
