2003 Renault Clio 60BHP Billabong Dynamique review from UK and Ireland
"A Wee Beauty!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There has been a rattling noise which progressed to a squeak from the offside front - Drivers side. The engine mounting bracket has been replaced.
When the tilt sunroof is open at halfway there is considerable vibration noise from the sunroof.
General comments?
The car feels sturdy and holds the road well.
It does not feel 'heavy' for a diesel engine, and is just as responsive as a petrol car. Nippy.
Fuel Consumption is superb - with a full tank I am getting around 650 miles. Roughly 60-69 MPG. I do not do a lot of long distance driving - this figure is composed of a few 20 mile journeys on the motorway, and several 6 - 10 mile journeys to and from work.
