2017 Renault Clio 1.5L Diesel · YA66 RWK

The 2017 Renault Clio presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 2 April 2026 at 112,099 miles with no defects recorded. Every test since January 2023 has returned a pass with zero advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep across multiple annual inspections. The record shows no recurring faults, no emissions concerns, and no structural corrosion flagged by any tester over a three-year span. This is a notably unblemished history for a high-mileage supermini. The vehicle has accumulated 112,099 miles over roughly nine years, averaging approximately 12,455 miles per year, which sits above the typical annual threshold. Mileage progression is steady rather than erratic: 94,352 miles in January 2023, 99,147 by January 2024, 104,968 in February 2025, and 112,099 in April 2026. The gap between the February 2025 and April 2026 tests spans roughly thirteen months, slightly longer than the standard annual cycle but not unusually so. The consistent yearly increments suggest regular daily use rather than prolonged standing, meaning drivetrain and suspension components have experienced sustained wear rather than deterioration from inactivity. Despite the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers in person, as high-mileage Clios frequently develop play in front lower arm bushes and rear axle mounting points before such issues become MOT failures. Brake discs and pads deserve close examination given the mileage covered, particularly the rear calipers, which can bind on higher-mileage examples. Check the exhaust system for corrosion along the centre section and back box, and inspect the underbody and sills for any early-stage surface rust that has not yet reached an MOT failure threshold. Tyre condition and tread depth across all four corners should be verified, as consumable wear accelerates with sustained high-mileage use.
