2007 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · MF07 CWO

The vehicle currently holds a passing roadworthiness certificate in the month of June 2026, but the MOT history indicates a significant deterioration in mechanical condition following the 2025-12-23 test. Failing on 2025-12-22 and passing only on 2025-01-03 suggests that the most recent MOT was conducted before the vehicle had experienced a severe mechanical failure. This gap between the 2025-12-23 test and the 2025-01-03 test implies that the vehicle was not adequately maintained during the transition period, likely due to a lack of routine servicing or a sudden drop in usage. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has a very low annual mileage of approximately 4,785 miles, which is notably low for a 2007 Renault Clio and suggests either very light use or a very long period of stationary storage. However, this low mileage does not necessarily indicate good condition; it can also reflect wear on consumables such as wiper blades or brake pads if the vehicle was driven frequently, or it can mask underlying issues like suspension bushings or binding calipers that would require inspection. The absence of any recorded defects in the 2025-12-23 test suggests that the car was not running on a faulty component that was immediately replaced, but rather that the mechanical integrity of the vehicle was compromised before the final test. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to assess the condition of suspension components, brake discs, and exhaust emissions, as these are the primary areas flagged for deterioration in this history. Since the vehicle failed on 2025-12-22, the most recent MOT was taken before the failure occurred, meaning the vehicle likely had no active faults at that time. However, the subsequent failure on 2025-01-02, which was taken after the most recent test, indicates that the vehicle may have had structural or mechanical issues that were not caught during the initial MOT. Any buyer must verify the condition of the suspension bushings, coil springs, and binding calipers, as well as the brake discs and exhaust emissions, to determine if the vehicle is drivable and safe to drive.
