Our Verdict
This 2017 Renault Clio offers good value for money but requires careful inspection of suspension and braking components due to recurring MOT issues.
Prioritise checking the nearside front suspension arm ball joint for wear, as this failed in 2024 and showed slight play in 2023. Inspect brake discs and pads for uneven wear, particularly after the 2022 report of lipped discs. Verify service records for suspension and brake repairs. Negotiate based on the 2024 failure and recurring issues, but the low mileage and recent pass make it a viable option for a cautious buyer.
Diesel fuel economy averages 55-60 mpg for this engine, but tax in 2026 would be £155 annually for CO2 emissions. Insurance group likely falls in the mid-range (group 15-20). Major maintenance costs could include suspension arm replacement (£300-500) and brake disc resurfacing. Estimated annual running cost: £1,000-£1,200.
Focus on the nearside front suspension arm ball joint for excessive wear, inspect brake discs for scoring, and check tyres for the nail mentioned in the 2026 MOT. Look for signs of previous suspension repairs and ensure the child seat mounting does not compromise seatbelt functionality. Test drive for brake pedal vibrations, which may indicate disc issues.
The vehicle has below-average mileage for its age (49,566 miles) and a mostly clean MOT history, though repeated suspension arm ball joint wear and brake disc issues raise concerns. Recent MOTs show improvements but highlight ongoing maintenance needs.
No aggregate data available for Renault Clio models, but this vehicle's specific issues highlight potential suspension and braking system vulnerabilities.
