Renault Clio review by Chester Tugwell

2-24-2004

Overall rating: 6/10

Good points:
Looks good Extras are good - rain sensitive windsreen, automatic lights, speed sensitive power steering

Bad points:
Poor cabin quality - creaky sun roof, dashboard Warm starting was a problem - sorted by dealer under waranty.

Main review:
Mixed bag of goodies - a really good drive, corners well, steers like a gem, comfortable sports seats, plenty of leg room. Sun-roof rattles, dash board rattles, suspension really hard - this gives excellent cornering however. If your not paronoid about creaking noises like I am this is a perfect car for the price. If you want perfection for under 10 grand forget it.

Reliability: 6/10

Practicality: 6/10

Performance: 7/10

Value for money: 7/10
