2017 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · DG17 FEU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 January 2026 at 53,046 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met the minimum standard following immediate re-tests. While the record shows failures in both January 2025 and 2026, the lack of recorded defects on the passing certificates suggests that minor issues were rectified prior to the re-tests without indicating a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,900 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual usage patterns, moving from 34,328 miles in January 2024 to 44,292 miles in January 2025, and reaching 53,046 miles by early 2026. This low-frequency usage suggests light commuting, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and seals if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should focus on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2025 and 2026, as the provided summary does not detail the exact mechanical faults. Given the age of the Clio, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these parts can perish over time regardless of mileage. Check the brake discs for excessive corrosion or binding calipers, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface rust on the braking system if not used frequently.
