3 of my mates are renault nuts, they have all had plenty of clio valvers and the common problems are gearboxes letting go, leaky sunroofs and rusty rear arches. electrics are a bit hit and miss too and the driving position can only be described as terrible.
if you can get a good one for under a grand its probably worth a look, but vts/gti ar appearing under the 1k mark now too and are an all round superior car.

its just a clio mate, you see clios everyday albeit not always an rsi.
Some older cars are plagued with more problems than others. the clio rsi is one of those cars that once riddled are best scrapped.
