2007 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · NL07 OBM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The latest test on 26 November 2025 at 109,356 miles resulted in a clean pass, following a failure just five days prior at the same mileage. This suggests that specific mechanical issues were identified and rectified immediately to meet compliance standards rather than being addressed through routine servicing. The trend remains stable as the vehicle has passed without recorded advisories in the last three testing cycles. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 109,356 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,750 miles per year. This low usage profile typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the gap between the February 2024 test at 99,917 miles and the November 2024 test at 104,371 miles shows a recent burst of over 4,000 miles in nine months. Such fluctuations in usage patterns can sometimes lead to accelerated degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals despite the low total annual mileage. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components. Given the age of the vehicle and the recent failures prior to passes, checking for corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and mounting points is essential. The repeated failures in November 2024 and 2025 indicate that the vehicle is prone to minor defects, likely related to bulbs, exhaust emissions, or minor mechanical leaks. Inspect the brake calipers for binding and examine the suspension bushes to ensure the low-mileage history has not resulted in seizing or cracking during long periods of standing.
