2002 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · RO52 ABN

The vehicle is currently not in a verifiable roadworthy state as the most recent MOT test dates back to January 2022. While the record shows a pass on 2022-01-25 at 108,215 miles, the car has been without a valid certificate for over four years. The maintenance trend appears stable based on the clean history, but the lack of recent testing means any current mechanical degradation remains undocumented. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 24 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,509 miles per year. A significant gap exists in the records between March 2016 and January 2022, during which the odometer only increased by 3,179 miles. This pattern suggests the car spent long periods stationary. Low mileage on an older Renault Clio often indicates lighter use, but prolonged inactivity can lead to perished rubber components and seized calipers. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the chassis and suspension for corrosion, as structural rust is common for this era of Clio and would not be captured in the sparse 2014 to 2022 data. Check the condition of the tyres and brake discs for flat spots or surface oxidation caused by standing. The engine oil and coolant should be inspected for contamination, and the battery likely requires replacement if it has remained dormant since the last test. Verify the operation of all electrical systems and the integrity of the exhaust system. Because the vehicle passed its last few tests without any advisories, there are no recurring mechanical faults to track, but the extended dormant period makes a full mechanical sympathy check essential before returning the car to the road.
