2008 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · NV08 FBD

The most recent MOT on 17 February 2022 at 112,998 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle met all statutory requirements at that time; the earlier same‑day failure and the 24 January 2022 failure both listed zero defects, suggesting the data may contain duplicate or erroneous entries, but the latest outcome points to a stable maintenance record. At 18 years old the car has accumulated 112,998 miles, averaging roughly 6,300 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for its age; the close succession of the January and February 2022 tests shows consistent testing intervals and no evidence of long periods of inactivity or sudden mileage spikes. A buyer should therefore inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, examine rear brake calipers and discs for seizing or excessive wear, check for structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis, and verify exhaust condition and emissions compliance, as these components commonly show deterioration on high‑mileage 2008 Clio models despite the clean MOT record.
