RENAULT SPORT CLIO 182 TROPHY 130/500 - OUTSTANDING

Is the RS Clio 182 Trophy the greatest hot hatch of all time? It's a bold claim but a quick internet video search reveals that Evo Magazine founder and Harry's Garage legend Harry Metcalfe certainly seems to think so...

This particular example in, you guessed it, Capsicum Red, is no.130 of the 500 UK cars made and is pleasingly original in every way. No modifications.

Everything you want to see is present and correct. Here are the headlines:

Recently refurbed genuine Sachs dampers.

Recently rebuilt engine and gearbox.

Original Recaro Trendline seats in unmarked condition.

Beautifully retrimmed steering wheel.

Service book stamped with loads of great history (see below).

Speedline Turini wheels in perfect condition.

Fresh rubber, brakes and pads.

2 keys with original car specific Trophy key fobs.

Genuine Renault sport floor mats.

Genuine jack/tools.

Our genuine and considered assessment of the condition of this car is:

Exterior - 8.5/10

Interior - 9/10

Mechanical - 9/10

Driving Experience - 10/10
