2017 RENAULT CLIO1.5L Diesel

This Renault Clio presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pattern of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 3 February 2026 at 52,431 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This continues a trend of clean certificates dating back to early 2023, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that meets all DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,826 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable over the last few years, rising from 38,775 miles in February 2023 to 52,431 miles in February 2026. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or undocumented heavy use. A single failure occurred on 23 February 2023 at 38,772 miles, though the vehicle passed the following day. The lack of recorded defects in that failure suggests a minor administrative or easily rectified issue rather than a significant mechanical breakdown. The absence of any advisories regarding brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or structural corrosion over the last four tests is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and indicates a high level of care. A physical inspection should focus on components that the MOT does not always exhaustively test. Check the condition of the tyres and wiper blades for age-related perishing, as low-mileage cars often retain old rubber long after it has hardened. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed regardless of the low annual mileage to prevent internal engine sludge.
