2017 Renault Clio 1.1L Petrol · HT66 RBF

This 2017 Renault Clio narrowly passed its most recent MOT on 22 January 2026 at 87,546 miles, having failed the same test earlier that day for split constant velocity boots on both front outer drive shaft joints, corrosion of the nearside front-to-rear brake pipe at the bulkhead, and slight play in the nearside front track rod end ball joint. The maintenance trend is inconsistent rather than clearly stable, worsening or improving: recurring suspension, braking and drivetrain wear items have appeared across multiple test cycles, with some faults repaired between tests but core wear problems resurfacing regularly, suggesting previous ownership has addressed minimum MOT requirements rather than carrying out preventative maintenance. The vehicle’s recorded mileage aligns closely with expected use for its age, at an average of roughly 9,727 miles per year over its 9-year lifespan. The 13-month gap between the January 2024 and February 2025 tests saw a mileage increase of 13,333 miles, slightly above the annual average, while the 11-month gap between the February 2025 and January 2026 tests saw an 8,747 mile increase, matching the expected yearly rate almost exactly. There are no unexplained gaps in the MOT record that would suggest the vehicle was off-road for extended periods, and no evidence of anomalously low mileage that would point to long periods of standing. A buyer should priorit.
