2000 Renault Clio Elise review from South Africa
"I will never buy another one because of the after sales "service"!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gearbox problems.
Brake problems.
Starting problems.
Central locking problems,
General comments?
The Clio is really attractive and comfortable.
It has plenty of power, it's nippy and easy to park.
When things start to go wrong, they really go wrong. The servicing at Renault is worse than disgusting, and they seem unable to fix anything.
When my car was stolen a month ago, it was a relief to get rid of it.
