Sometimes jubilee clips are too small so if you get 2, unwind both then join them, hey presto job done. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

The one on my car was done up with a cable tie which was clearly insufficient as water had gotten into the joint. I asked my indie at the time how it could have got through an MOT and he said that as long as it's done up with something, even string, it could have passed although you would have expected an advisory on it.
