Our Verdict

A solid option for city driving, particularly if you are looking for a lower-mileage example. The recent MOT history is relatively clean, though the two recorded failures suggest a need for thorough pre-purchase inspections.

When inspecting this specific 2019 Clio, focus on the mechanical components that frequently cause issues for this model, such as the suspension and exhaust systems. While the recent MOT passed with no defects, the failures in 2024 and 2026 indicate that certain components may require more frequent attention.

Request a detailed service history to see if the small 898cc engine has been maintained according to manufacturer intervals. Because this vehicle has covered nearly 30,000 miles, check for any signs of wear on the tyres and brake pads, as these are common items that can lead to MOT advisories or failures on high-frequency urban vehicles.

The 898cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this car in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it economical for new drivers or commuters. Fuel economy should be competitive for a small hatchback of this era.

Annual maintenance costs are expected to be moderate, though you should budget for periodic replacements of consumables like tyres and wipers. Based on typical usage, the estimated annual running cost is relatively low compared to larger engine variants.

Given the model aggregate data, pay close attention to the headlamps, suspension arms, and the exhaust system during your inspection. Although no specific defects were listed for the 2024 and 2026 failures in the provided data, these are the most common failure points for the Renault Clio across the wider dataset.

Check the condition of the suspension components for any play or noise when driving over uneven surfaces. Additionally, ensure the white paintwork is free from significant stone chips, which can be common on vehicles used for motorway commuting, and verify that all lighting elements are functioning correctly to avoid the headlamp issues seen in other models.

This 2019 white Renault Clio features a small 898cc petrol engine and has covered 29,659 miles as of its last MOT in February 2026. Compared to the model average of 5,722 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven slightly more than the typical aggregate, but remains well within reasonable limits for its age. The MOT history shows five recorded tests with two failures, but no recurring defect patterns were noted in the most recent results.

The Renault Clio shows an average MOT pass rate of 72.4% across 369,127 analysed vehicles, with headlamps, suspension, and exhaust being the primary failure points.
