2017 Renault ZOE Electric · AE17 ZPL

The 2017 Renault Zoe presents a stable and highly favorable maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 18 December 2025 at 44,352 miles. The vehicle has consistently passed its annual inspections without recording a single defect or advisory, indicating diligent upkeep and a lack of recurring mechanical or structural faults. The absence of any corrosion, suspension wear, or braking issues across the documented history suggests the car has been reliably maintained. With a recorded mileage of 44,352 miles over nine years, the vehicle has covered roughly 4,928 miles annually, which is exceptionally low for its age. The mileage progression shows a slight uptick in recent usage; between the November 2023 test at 32,650 miles and the October 2024 test at 37,240 miles, the Zoe covered 4,592 miles. This increased to 7,103 miles over the following fourteen months leading to the December 2025 test at 44,352 miles. Such low annual mileage implies lighter urban use, though prolonged periods of standing can sometimes mask latent issues that only surface with regular driving. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection remains prudent given the low-mileage profile. The same-day failure and pass recorded in both November 2023 and December 2025—both noting no defects—typically point to minor rectifications like blown bulbs or wiper blades, but a buyer should verify the condition of all electrical components and charging infrastructure. Inspect the 12-volt battery health and the charging port for wear, as electric vehicles left standing for extended periods can suffer from battery discharge or connector degradation. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion, a common issue on EVs driven sparingly, and check the tyre sidewalls for cracking, as the rubber may have aged faster than the tread has worn.
