2017 Renault Koleos 2.0L Diesel · GF67 WBJ

The Renault Koleos is currently roadworthy following its most recent MOT test on 2025-11-19, where it passed with advisories rather than failures. However, the maintenance trend shows a worsening pattern in recent years, particularly concerning brake components and tyre wear. The recurring issues with brake discs—pitted or scored but not seriously weakened—suggest ongoing brake system degradation, while multiple failures and advisories related to tyre tread depth indicate that the vehicle has not consistently maintained optimal tyre condition. The presence of corrosion on the front sub-frame and slight corrosion on brake hoses also points to potential long-term structural and fluid integrity concerns. The recorded mileage of 57,801 miles at the time of the latest test aligns closely with the expected usage for a 2017 model, averaging approximately 6,422 miles per year over nine years. This suggests the vehicle has been driven at a moderate rate, with no signs of excessive mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity. The MOT history is relatively consistent, with annual tests conducted on schedule, and no significant gaps in testing. However, the repeated tyre tread issues across multiple tests, particularly on the offside rear and front tyres, may indicate uneven wear patterns or improper alignment that could have been overlooked during routine servicing. Buyers should conduct a thorough inspection of the brake system, paying close attention to the condition of the front and rear brake discs and pads, as these have been flagged multiple times. The corrosion on the front sub-frame, while not currently critical, warrants assessment for potential impact on suspension geometry and handling. The steering rack’s offside play should also be evaluated, as it could affect steering precision and safety. Additionally, the tyres should be checked for wear patterns and replaced if tread depth is near or below the legal limit, especially on the offside rear, which has been a recurring concern.
