2021 Renault Clio Play TCE 1.0L Petrol · ML21 YGD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend following a previous failure. The most recent test on 17 December 2025 at 29,517 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in the prior year were addressed. The clean result of the latest inspection suggests the vehicle is being maintained to an acceptable standard without immediate mechanical or safety concerns. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,900 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap of 2,380 miles between the April 2024 and December 2024 tests, followed by an increase of 9,761 miles over the following year. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it can also increase the risk of rubber-based components perishing due to age rather than use, which mirrors the failures seen in the history. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyres during a inspection. The December 2024 failure at 19,756 miles due to exposed cords on the offside rear and perishing on the nearside rear. While these were likely replaced, the low mileage suggests the car may have sat for extended periods, which can lead to dry rot in sidewalls even if tread depth remains sufficient. Check the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often allows surface rust to pitting on the rotors.
