Our Verdict

A consistent MOT record for a vehicle of

Given the vehicle's age and mileage, the primary focus should be on the service history. Specifically, verify when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for the 1.2L petrol engine. Ensure there is evidence of regular oil changes to support the longevity of a high-mileage engine.

Negotiate the price based on the mileage, which is significantly higher than the model average. Check for any signs of corrosion on the underbody and sills, as this is a common area of concern for small cars from this era.

The 1149cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making it a cost-effective choice for urban commuting. Insurance groups for the 2008 Clio are typically low, and the road tax for this engine size remains affordable.

Maintenance costs are generally low due to the abundance of spare parts available for this model. However, as the vehicle is now 17 years old, buyers should budget for the gradual replacement of wear-and-tear components such as brake discs, pads, and suspension bushings.

Inspect the tyres thoroughly. The MOT history shows a pattern of perishing and cracking on the rear inner tyres across 2022, 2023, and 2025, suggesting a potential issue with tyre age or usage patterns. Ensure the current set is in good condition and not overdue for replacement.

Additionally, check the headlamps and suspension arms, as these are identified as top failure points across the wider Clio population. Finally, examine the black paintwork for any clear-coat failure or fading, which can be common on darker vehicles of this vintage.

This black 2008 Renault Clio has recorded 118,347 miles as of its last MOT in January 2026. The vehicle has passed its last five MOT tests, although three of these included advisories regarding perishing or cracking on the rear inner tyres. It is a high-mileage example of a model that holds an average MOT pass rate of 72.4%.

The Renault Clio has a moderate reliability reputation, with an average MOT pass rate of 72.4% based on data from 369,985 vehicles.
