2022 Renault Clio Iconic Edition Tce

CarHunch analysed 1,216 real MOT records for the 2022 Renault Clio Iconic Edition Tce. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This Clio is a strong performer, with a 92.4% first-time pass rate that sits well clear of the UK average of 80%—and dangerous defects are rare at just 4.9% of vehicles, so you're not inheriting a structural problem. The petrol TCE engine shows no reliability red flags in the MOT records.

At around 19,000 miles for a two-year-old car, these Clios are running light mileage, which explains why failures average only 0.11 per vehicle and advisories just 0.7—there's simply less wear. When you buy one, budget for routine maintenance rather than remedial work, and check the full service history to make sure early intervals weren't skipped despite the low miles.

What to check before buying a 2022 Renault Clio Iconic Edition Tce

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
