2007 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · NH07 FHX

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean MOT pass on February 28, 2026 at 134,436 miles. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes, the trend indicates that identified defects are addressed promptly to maintain legality. The lack of recorded advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that the current owner has been proactive in resolving mechanical issues before they escalate into recurring failures. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the car covered 10,267 miles, and it added another 10,715 miles in the year leading up to the February 2026 test. This steady usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for preventing seals, bushings, and braking components from seizing up. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in February 2024 and 2025, as the provided record does not detail the exact reason codes for those rejects. The fact that the car failed within two miles of its recorded mileage in both instances suggests minor items such as bulbs, wipers, or fluid leaks were involved. Given the age of the Renault Clio, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the sills and subframes is essential, as these areas are common failure points for rust despite a clean mechanical history.
