Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT, but the most recent inspection reveals a sharp decline in maintenance standards following years of clean records. While it passed the test on 21 May 2026 at 73,698 miles, the failure just one day prior highlighted a multitude of critical safety and mechanical defects. This shift suggests that the previous owner neglected routine servicing until the MOT deadline forced repairs, moving from a stable history to a state requiring immediate attention to the braking system and suspension components. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression from June 2023 at 47,812 miles to May 2025 at 62,813 miles. However, the jump of over 10,000 miles between May 2025 and May 2026 indicates a period of higher usage compared to previous stagnant years, which likely contributed to the accelerated wear observed on the consumables and mechanical parts in the 2026 test. A buyer must scrutinise the braking system and suspension thoroughly. The May 2026 failure flagged an offside front suspension arm ball joint as excessively worn and nearside front brake pads as being dangerously thin. The presence of grease on corroded brake pipes is concerning as it often masks deeper structural degradation of the metal lines at the flex points. Additionally, the binding offside rear service brake indicates a sticking caliper or piston which could lead to uneven pad wear and premature failure if not addressed.

Our Verdict

Approach this 2017 Renault Clio with caution due to a recent MOT failure with multiple serious brake and tyre defects. While it passed the following day after repairs, the extent of the faults suggests deferred maintenance that warrants a thorough independent inspection.

Given the May 2026 failure, insist on seeing itemised invoices for all rectification work carried out between the failed and passed tests, including brake discs, pads, tyres, suspension ball joint, and stop lamp. Without proof of proper repair by a competent garage, budget for a full brake and suspension check at your own cost. The clean 2023-2025 history suggests the car was maintained reasonably until high mileage in 2026 exposed worn components.

The 898cc three-cylinder petrol engine in this Clio is among the most economical in its class, with real-world figures around 45-50 mpg achievable. Road tax for a 2017 sub-1.0-litre petrol should fall in a low band, likely £20-£35 per year depending on emissions, and insurance group is typically low for the base Clio.

The May 2026 MOT failure listed Nearside Front brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick and both front discs worn or scored, so confirm new pads and discs are fitted and not just minimally patched. The Offside Front suspension arm ball joint was excessively worn and the Offside Rear tyre had a structural tear — physically inspect the replacement tyres for correct 195/55 R16 specification and check the suspension arm for fresh components or uneven tyre wear.

This white 2017 Renault Clio 0.9-litre petrol (CK67VTV) shows consistent MOT passes from 2023 to 2025 with no defects recorded, but failed spectacularly on 20 May 2026 at 73,697 miles. The failure included worn brake discs, excessively thin front pads, corroded front brake pipes, a worn suspension ball joint, non-working rear stop lamp, and damaged rear tyres. It passed one day later at 73,698 miles after apparent rectification, though minor advisories on brake pipes and rear brake binding remained.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Renault Clio in this analysis, so model-level claims cannot be made from the provided data.
