2017 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · DV17 OFK

The current roadworthiness status of this Renault Clio is excellent, with the most recent MOT test on 04 March 2026 at 55,385 miles resulting in a clean pass. The vehicle has demonstrated a positive maintenance trend, transitioning from a series of tyre-related failures and advisories in 2023 and 2024 to a clear record in the last two annual inspections. This suggests that the current keeper has addressed previous neglect and is now maintaining the vehicle to a standard that meets statutory requirements without recurring defects. The recorded mileage of 55,385 miles over nine years averages approximately 6,154 miles per annum, which is well within the expected usage parameters for a vehicle of this type. The history shows consistent, incremental usage between tests, with no significant gaps or periods of prolonged storage that would typically lead to seized components or accelerated corrosion. The jump from 38,938 miles in March 2024 to 48,809 miles by February 2025 indicates a period of regular, active use, which is generally preferable to long-term inactivity. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the tyres, as the vehicle has a documented history of running them to the legal limit or below. While the recent tests show no faults, the recurring issues with tyre wear and perishing in 2023 and 2024 indicate that previous owners may have deferred essential consumable replacements. Check the current tyre brand and date codes to ensure they match the quality expected of a well-maintained vehicle. Given the clean bill of health in the last two years, the underlying mechanical and structural integrity appears sound, but a thorough check of the braking system and suspension bushes remains prudent to ensure that the recent pass reflects genuine condition rather than a temporary fix.
