1999 Renault Clio RT review from UK and Ireland
"Clio 2 sucks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As soon as the 1 year warranty ran out my electric sunroof packed in.
The gear shift is appalling, I can't get into 1st gear everytime and second is always jerky.
General comments?
My first Clio was the original and best. I had a 1.2RN for 9 years and very little went wrong, although towards the end of its life, the wheel bearing went and the electrics played up. I did 72,000 miles in that and was as pleased as punch.
The new Clio is a disaster. I don't think it'll last very long. I regret buying the car!
