2020 Renault Clio Iconic Blue DCI 1.5L Diesel · SA20 AND

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent inspection. While the record shows a failure on 23 June 2025 at 92,451 miles, the car passed the retest the following day at 92,459 miles with no defects recorded. This suggests a minor administrative or consumable issue, such as a blown bulb, which was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure or structural concern requiring significant repair. The mileage pattern indicates high-intensity usage for a six-year-old vehicle. With 92,459 miles recorded, the Clio has averaged approximately 15,400 miles per year, which significantly exceeds the UK average for passenger cars. Between the June 2023 test at 51,776 miles and the June 2024 test at 73,255 miles, the vehicle covered over 21,000 miles in a single year. This consistent high annual mileage suggests the car was likely used for motorway commuting, which is fair on the engine but accelerates the wear on suspension components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the rapid accumulation of miles, a close look at the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is necessary to check for play or leaks. The brake discs and pads should be evaluated for thinning and scoring, as high-frequency driving often places significant strain on the braking system. While the MOT history is clean of advisories, verifying the structural integrity of the underbody for any emerging corrosion remains a non-negotiable step for a high-mileage Renault of nearing the 100,000-mile threshold.
