I had one of these for my 1st car on a K plate.
Best £40 i ever spent! It lasted 14 months and was still running when i gave it away after moving up to a Corsa.
Cracking little cars them.......timing chain too so no cam belt to worry about

my mum has an R plate 1.2 clio...
we bought something like two years ago? cant remember really... all it needed for MOT was new discs and pads...
good on petrol, cheap to run
go for it!
if it has 80-ish thou mileson the clock then 400 is good price as it is...
too many bargain hunters out here.
