2014 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · MF64 ADO

The 2014 Renault Clio passed its most recent MOT on 8 June 2026 at 103,484 miles, leaving it roadworthy just over a month before today's date. The underlying maintenance trend shows improvement after a poor 2024 to 2025 period. In the June 2026 test the tester logged only minor and moderate advisories: deteriorated front plate, both front tyres worn on the edge, a severely deteriorated nearside front CV boot, slight nearside rear wheel bearing play, and a greased-over rear brake pipe. No failure defects appeared. Mileage rose from 87,419 in June 2024 to 95,471 in June 2025 and 103,484 in June 2026, an annual average of roughly 8,000 miles that matches typical use for a twelve-year-old car. The record shows no standing gaps or sudden accumulation. Prior owners kept test spacing annual and consistent, though the 2024 and 2025 entries reveal deferred consumable work rather than neglect of structure. Recurring brake pipe corrosion on the offside front appeared in June 2024, June 2025, and as a greased rear pipe in June 2026, signalling ongoing underbody protection neglect that a buyer must inspect for spread to other lines and chassis mounts. The June 2024 failure for an excessively worn nearside front suspension arm ball joint and worn Macpherson top mount bush, plus the 2026 CV boot split, points to front suspension and drivetrain gaiters needing physical checks for play, cracking, and grease loss. In person, confirm the nearside rear wheel bearing play has not worsened beyond slight, verify both front tyres and the pitted 2025 front discs noted at 95,471 miles were actually replaced, and lift the car to expose the brake pipes and subframe for corrosion. The 2024 oil leak advisory cleared by 2025, suggesting it was resolved, but trace the engine underside for fresh seepage before purchase.
