2019 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · SN68 KTS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While it passed its latest test on 14 January 2026 at 62,698 miles, the failure just one day prior highlights significant mechanical neglect. The recorded offside front suspension arm ball joint wear and fractured offside front coil spring indicate that critical components were allowed to reach point of failure, suggesting the owner only addresses mechanical faults when forced by an MOT test result. At 62,698 miles over seven years, the Clio has averaged approximately 9,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a small city car. The mileage accumulation is consistent, with roughly 10,000 miles driven between February 2024 and January 2025, and another 10,400 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This steady usage suggests the vehicle is driven regularly, though the record shows that this mileage has not translated into preventative maintenance between annual intervals. A buyer must personally inspect the entire front suspension assembly to ensure the replacement of the ball joint and coil spring did not mask secondary issues. The 2024 test noted pitted front brake discs and uneven tyre wear, while the 2025 failure for a tyre below the legal limit confirms a recurring pattern of ignoring consumables until they become hazardous. Check for signs of uneven tyre wear and the condition of the brake rotors, as the history indicates a tendency toward overlooking routine wear-related items until a formal failure occurs.
