2002 Renault Clio Privilege review from Portugal
"The best choice in the segment."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, nothing.
General comments?
The car is a good deal, the engine is fast, and has a good economy.
The gearbox, as all other Renaults, is precise, soft, but a little slow.
The steering is really good, and the seats are very comfortable.
It handles really good!
I noticed some noises, like it it's something loose, under the steering column.
Also, sometimes there's a strange smell coming from the air conditioner.
I haven't fixed any of them, so far, since I can't stop the car.
Renault should change the handles on the doors. The plastic gets scratched easily.
