2001 Renault Clio RXE review from Australia and New Zealand
"To be avoided!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sometimes the key won't turn! The engine won't start for any good reason that the garage can find and there is a noise from the right of the car like a whine when the car does more than 100km ph.
I would not buy from this manufacturer again and will soon be looking at replacing it with a reliable Japanese make.
Clearly the build quality is not acceptable.
General comments?
I am terribly disappointed with this car as it has cost me a small fortune in repairs.
