2000 Renault Clio RSi review from UK and Ireland
"Great value performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front floor mat fixing pulled out of carpet after about 1000 miles.
Drivers seat lumbar adjustment has never worked.
Stereo occasionally switches itself off.
Sunroof rattles continuously, especially on uneven and rough surfaces.
The map reading light switch, which I rarely use fell to pieces at about 30000 miles.
General comments?
A lovely little car for the back lanes. It is reasonably quick with good fuel economy even when pushed.
The sports seats are laterally supportive, but have little lower back support.
The pedals are offset to the right slightly, which on a long journey leads to right leg numbness where the thigh presses against the side bolster.
