2017 Renault Clio 1.2L Petrol · RF17 XOS

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2025 at 33,343 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the results of the previous four annual tests. This trend suggests a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical or structural failures during its nine-year tenure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old Renault, averaging approximately 3,700 miles per year. Between August 2021 at 16,774 miles and July 2025 at 33,343 miles, the car covered only 16,569 miles, indicating infrequent short-distance use. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation in rubber-based parts or surface corrosion on components that the MOT test does not always capture. Given the lack of recorded faults in the history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage usage. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots, which often occur when vehicles sit stationary. Examine the brake discs for surface pitting and ensure the calipers are not seizing, as infrequent use can lead to uneven wear. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of dry rot, as the age of the materials may impact their integrity despite the low miles driven.
