Was picked up this afternoon, I wasn't even here to see it go, can't say i'll miss it tbh.
The build quality was terrible and it just wasn't enjoyable to drive.
No power at all below 4k rpm and never felt fast.
Guy that bought it spent a good half an hour going over it and was quite chuffed with it, was a good example.
Nothing for them is cheap, was needing the cambelt done and thats 500+ depending where you take it.
A hazard light switch costs 40 quid and they regularly break, expensive sparkplugs, expensive exhaust, was 140 quid or something like that for a standard center section.
I doubt i'll ever go back to renault, although they have apparently sorted the build quality issues out, built from kit kat wrappers and blue tac.

New owner has had 10 pass through the family, knew what he was looking for.
It wasn't that car that was the problem, just clio's in general.

Think yourself lucky it wasn't a Cup. £160 for a front splitter, it's actually cheaper to buy a carbon one
