Low mileage Clio 172

Was car shopping a couple of days ago (bought a cracking WRX Estate since you ask ) and on the forecourt there was this 2003 172. A 7 year old car - guess the mileage before clicking on the link...

Didn't have time to look at it properly but apparently it's been in storage for a while since the guy bought it new - wonder whether the original owner should have seen if Renault wanted it back!?

Nice, I wish I could afford to Insure one.

Linky not working, but guess mileage is really low. If so, would not touch as car has not been used enough to keep things 'right'.

Gosh, 3,400mi! Why buy it if you're not going to use it?! My friends parents just bought a fully-specced Ph2 172 on a 53-plate with 23,000mi on the clock, I thought THAT was low!

Hasn't been used enough to make things 'broke' either I know where you are coming from though.

Why on earth would you put a 172 in storage? Bizarre.

Works ok for me - here's another link I found...

Not sure whether anything vital might sieze up in that time?
