2003 Renault Clio Expression review from Greece
"Very nice super mini which can easily travel"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alarm button was damaged at 32,000 Km. Replaced for 18 Euro.
Ignition cable cut off (probably due too bad tightening of the screw holding it) at 35,000 Km. 25 Euro for replacement.
A/B light was on, due to damaged passenger A/B switch. I had never used that switch actually, and we spent some time in order to locate the problem. In the 3rd visit to Renault they finally found it. 21 Euro for replacement.
General comments?
I liked very much the car appearance.
Quick and good handling.
Not spacious due to its size (3,77m), but on the other hand very good when parking was the issue.
Economical and in general low running costs.
Decent quality.
Good safety kit (4AB, ABS)
