1994 Renault Clio 16v review from UK and Ireland
"As hot as 'Nicole' from the Clio ads"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wheel nut sheared off upon removing wheel
Rear wiper no longer works
Oil pressure gauge no longer works
Passenger electric window is very slow.
General comments?
This particular car is lowered, with an after-market exhaust, so it isn't a very comfortable ride, but that said it is well worth the sacrifice. The handling is superb, whilst the performance embarrasses much more expensive machinery.
The seats are comfortable, and need to be given the harsh ride
All in all, the electrics are pretty dodgy on these French cars, but the drive more than makes up for it all.
