2017 Renault Clio 1.2L Petrol · GY17 CDU

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 9 June 2025 at 54,917 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a perfect record across the last five years. This stability suggests a reliable maintenance trend where the owner has proactively addressed regulatory requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,100 miles per year. Between the December 2020 test at 35,665 miles and the June 2025 test at 54,917 miles, the car covered 19,252 miles over four and a half years. The annual accumulation of roughly 4,000 miles indicates light usage, likely short-distance urban commuting. Such low-average mileage typically implies reduced wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and brake system hardware compared to higher-mileage counterparts. Because the MOT record shows no advisories for binding calipers, worn tyres, or exhaust corrosion, a buyer should focus on the physical condition of components that age with time rather than mileage. Inspection should prioritise the rubber-based suspension arm bushes and boots, which can crack or perish even with low usage. Checking the brake fluid moisture content and the condition of the rotor discs is also prudent, as low-use vehicles can sometimes experience surface pitting or internal corrosion. The clean history suggests a well-kept example that has not been subjected to significant mechanical stress.
