1992 Renault Clio RN review from UK and Ireland
"A reliable, comfortable and practical car, but not exciting"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front wheel bearings both replaced twice at around 20,000 and 35,000 miles.
The multi-plug for the blower melted recently.
The clutch cable snapped at around 40,000 miles.
Other than the above, has proved very economical to service and maintain.
General comments?
Its very comfortable for its size and copes extremely well on long motorway journeys.
Always starts first time and handles very well in difficult weather conditions.
The 1.2 engine does struggle a bit on steep climbs when the car is well loaded.
