1994 Renault Clio 16v review from UK and Ireland
"Hot-hatch heaven!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Generally trouble free. The radiator sprung a leak on a particularly hot day in heavy traffic. It had to be re-sealed. Front suspension springs were replaced due to general wear and degredation.
General comments?
If you plan to own or own one of these, it is important the services are kept up. Mainly the car needs an oil/filter change every 6,000 miles without fail. If you do this, the car will run forever!
It's a lovely looking car, still stylish, hottest of the hot-hatches, handles like it's glued to the road. See mine at http://www.jas.tj/clio16v
