Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great bhp per £ - but still depreciates massively so buy a nearly new one and save a packet.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Min 30mpg on a bad day, you need to shop around on insurance though.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Handles fantastically and is fun to drive - noise levels can be wearing on longer journeys though!

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Superb for the money - keeps up with most things :)

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Not one problem to date (touch wood!) - much better than anticipated, more reliable than my last 2 Hondas!

    Ok it's a nice looking and fast Clio, but it's still a Clio!

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Worst thing about the car - Seating position is awful (you are too high and hunched over), rear ok but cramped.
