But they look hideous. Inside and out.
Its a Renault so buy new, keep it until the warranty runs out, then run away as fast as you can.
Each to their own, I love the way it looks and the inside looks great as far as I'm concerned - especially if you spec the leather seats.But they look hideous. Inside and out.

"£250 for hands free card with push-button start, £250 for tyre pressure monitor"
hmmm, not exactly performance essentials are they haha
Not convinced by £750 for headlights but they do look nice
I like the tyre pressure monitors. Useful to see that the tyres are up to temperature/pressure before you push it along, so does have a performance benefit IMOhmmm, not exactly performance essentials are they haha

Says the man who bought a clapped out 172 and now thinks he is a Renault expert and now owns a Nissan with a far superior interior lol But they look hideous. Inside and out.

Strange logic, surely it would be far, far more cost effective to buy nearly new, then sell it when you're ready to move on. Renault's aren't that unreliable any more, change the oil within schedule and actually get the major jobs done in plenty of time (i.e. cambelt, RS Clio owners are particularly good at ignoring this as it's not a cheap service) and they are generally fine.But they look hideous. Inside and out.

I've had 4 Clios now, about 200k covered, no breakdowns and rear shocks aside I've only ever had to replace the usual consumables.

They are s
t end of story. I suppose the brand new almost equally st 182 I had was also clapped out?Don't need to be an expert to know how s
t they are tbh. Most people do.
Nice spec. I noticed the same thing when buying mine - it works out cheaper to buy a Cup and then spec it up rather than go for a FF and add the Cup pack (provided you can live without the extra luxuries).
Not sure what the 18" will be like as I had 19". But I found the 19" to be fine anyway. You don't get the Bridgestone tyres with the 18", which I thought was a cracking tyre. However, not sure you will notice any difference (if there is any) unless you are doing trackdays.
I reckon the monitor is worth it. The first time you put it in Extreme mode on a cold winters morning is very grin inducing! My preferred setting for dry road use was always Sport. However, if you are doing a lot of urban stop start driving one of the lower settings will probably be more suitable.
Ignore the haters, the Meganes are cracking cars and I would consider another one in 12/18 months time. I had no issues with mine at all, everything worked and nothing broke or fell off.
