2008 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · WN58 AEW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record over the last two years. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 90,435 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a period of consistent passes in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids immediate or recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows a steady usage rate, with 13,887 miles covered between September 2022 and 2023, and another 7,151 miles between 2023 and 2024. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based parts or corrosion on brake components if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer conducting a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. The buyer must check the structural integrity of the chassis, specifically the sills and wheel arches, as hidden corrosion is common in Renault models of this era. Despite the lack of advisories in the recent history, a manual check of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking is necessary, alongside an examination of brake calipers for binding or seizing which often occurs due to low use and aging fluid.
