Renault Clio

[Maggie-Mae]

Im want to change from my 1.8 Mazda 323 to a car with a smaller engine and have been looking at 1.2 and 1.4 Renault Clio's. Does anyone have any good or bad experiences of Clio's as Ive never owned a Renault before and would like to know how reliable they are. Thanks in advance x

I've got a 1.2 Clio from 2000 and it's great. I think I've missed out on the probs of the new version and I've never had any probs. Reliable little thing. I've only ever had Renaults and all the ones I've had has never given me any probs. I find Renaults to be very reliable and good runners. With having a 1.2 car tax is also really cheap.
