2007 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · YN07 PPZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its latest MOT on 15 June 2026 at 115,390 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement as the mechanical issues identified in previous years appear to have been addressed. While the most recent test indicates a clean bill, the history reveals a pattern of reactive maintenance where components are replaced only upon failing inspection rather than through proactive preventative care. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 115,390 miles represents an average annual usage of approximately 6,073 miles. This figure is consistent with typical light cars of this age, suggesting relatively low mechanical exposure. The data shows a steady accumulation pattern, with roughly 4,500 to 5,500 miles covered between each annual test. This consistent interval suggests the vehicle has been used regularly for short-term trips rather than sitting stationary for long periods of time. A buyer should focus specifically on the front suspension geometry during a physical inspection. The 2025 test at 110,874 miles flagged play in the offside front steering rack inner joints, while the 2024 records highlighted uneven tyre wear on both front axles. These faults often point to incorrect alignment or worn suspension wish arm bushings. It is essential to verify that the steering remains free of play and that the current tyres do not show signs of premature inner wear, which would indicate the underlying alignment issues were not fully rectified.
