Hi all

In the market for clio 197.

This has been up for a while, the desctripon sounds spot on mecahnically wise which is the most important thing, price seems good.

Do you think the untastly red exterior mods are what's keeping it unsold and price fairly low?

I'd always look at the tyre brand to see how well a car has been maintained. This appears to have Arrowspeed tyres. Not a brand I've heard of and they're not the usual Michelins or Goodyears that you'd see fitted to a hot hatch. Cheap tyres are usually a sign that the car has been maintained on a shoestring. That said, the history looks good according to the advert.

I think the red is the main issue though....

Easily sorted if you check ebay...
