2010 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · SL60 KXC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent recorded data. The final test on 8 December 2021 at 61,191 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the car met the minimum safety and environmental standards at that point in time. However, because no MOT has been recorded for over four years since, the vehicle is currently overdue for a test. This gap in testing history represents a significant risk regarding the current state of mechanical components and structural integrity. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old Renault, averaging approximately 3,824 miles per year. The data shows a significant period of inactivity between March 2020 (36,497 miles) and December 2021 (61,191 miles), during which the vehicle covered over 22,000 miles in twenty months. While low mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing often lead to degradation of rubber-based components, such as suspension bushes and sidewalls, as well as potential corrosion on brake discs and fluid lines. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection focusing on areas associated with age and low-mileage storage. Since the record shows no specific mechanical failures, the priority is checking for structural rust on the sills and subframe, which is common in Clios of this era. The braking system should be checked for pitting or seized calipers resulting from lack of use. Because the vehicle has not been tested in several years, an immediate MOT is mandatory to verify that no new structural weaknesses or fluid leaks have developed since the December 2021 entry.
