2007 Renault Clio 2.0L Petrol · MV57 YYT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a period of minor mechanical failures. The most recent test on August 21, 2025, at 88,054 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the previous issues identified have been addressed. This represents an improving maintenance trend compared to the 2024 failure where the car failed on a fractured offside front coil spring and a loose exhaust heat shield. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 88,054 miles reflects a low average of approximately 4,634 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual usage, with roughly 2,669 miles driven between August 2023 and August 2024, and another 2,418 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. While low mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain, it increases the likelihood of rubber components degrading due to age rather than use. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the front suspension and braking system due to the history of faults. The August 2023 test flagged a corroded offside front brake pipe covered in grease, which often indicates an ongoing leak or poor maintenance of fluid lines. The buyer should verify that the brake lines are now clean and check for signs of weeping at the calipers. Additionally, since the 2023 record noted a perishing sidewall, the age of the current tyres must be checked for dry rot, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from rubber cracking despite having tread depth.
