2015 Renault Clio 1.2L Petrol · YH65 PXS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent pattern of deferred basic consumable upkeep. The most recent test in September 2025 at 43,871 miles passed, but it introduced new advisories regarding cuts on both front tyres and uneven edge wear. This continues a trend seen in 2024 and 2022, where the owner consistently allowed the front tyres to reach the legal wear limit before addressing them. At eleven years of age, the recorded mileage of 43,871 miles is significantly below the national average, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. The data shows steady usage intervals, with an increase of 2,235 miles recorded between the September 2024 and September 2025 tests. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between services can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, such as suspension bushes or perished brake hoses, if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment. The recurring reports of tyres worn on the edge across multiple years suggest potential issues with worn control arm bushes, incorrect tracking, or worn strut tops that have not been rectified. Additionally, the failure in 2023 regarding an ineffective windscreen wiper indicates that minor peripheral items are only replaced when they fail a test. A physical check of the brake discs for corrosion or pitting is also advised, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface rust if not used frequently.
