2014 Renault Clio 0.9L Petrol · SO09 ROW

The 2014 Renault Clio presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 1 August 2025 at 103,897 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows four consecutive annual passes with zero advisories. The maintenance trend is resolving and consistent, with no recurring mechanical or structural concerns flagged across the five-year DVLA record. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The odometer moved from 63,981 miles at the 16 September 2021 test to 103,897 miles by August 2025, an average of roughly 9,979 miles per year against a lifetime mean near 8,658. The step from 96,450 miles in September 2024 to 103,897 miles in August 2025 shows lighter use of about 7,447 miles in eleven months. No gaps appear in the annual test sequence, and the clean sheet across all entries suggests the previous owners kept basic consumable and statutory upkeep current. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record. The MOT dataset captures only test-day condition and does not measure worn suspension bushes, corroding subframes, or fatigued coil springs outside the examined items. At 103,897 miles the original clutch, dampers, and brake discs may be nearing replacement regardless of absent advisories. Verify underside structural integrity for rust, check tyre sidewall age, and confirm service history for cambelt interval. The Clio's clean MOT trail implies disciplined ownership, yet high-mileage Renaults of this era warrant hands-on checks on steering joints and exhaust mounts before purchase.
