Clio workhorse

Bought for £1,200 in January 2011 at 75,000 miles.

Cheap and cheerful work horse

Paid £1200 in feb 2011 for it at 75k miles originally planned to clean it up but decided to keep it spent just under £1k on replacing wear and tear items mainly due to hitting a massive pothole.
Now done 105k miles. June 2011 Runs better than new and still returns 44 mpg of Mainly short journeys.
Now worth maybe 1k
Was looking to trade it in for something newer but tbh it runs better than most new cars due to being serviced regularly so going to keep it and put more money toward the evo
My gym membership costs more than this cars worth :/

Car handles great but the interior is showing wear, steering wheel looks like ithashad a blow torch taken to it

Says more about your gym membership than the car!

Very nice though!

£1200 for a six-year-old car at the time?! It must have been a complete shed, and you must have done a fair bit of work, because it must surely be worth double that if it's as good as it looks above??

I was thinking that you must have got it cheap as it is only an 05. Looks nice though. What size engine and fuel type are you getting mid 40 mpg out of, OOI?

Replaced ball joints, both Lowe arms, drop links, arb, coil spring, crank shaft position sensor, pads and disc and some other stuff , unfortunatly the car was vandalised and doesn't look as good , will post up a recent pic Spent 3 hours cleaning it. I reckon the cars worth about £900

It's a 1.2 "extreme" 75 bhp for those that are wondering

M8 paid £2k for a 90,000 mile 02' Clio so you got a good deal there

I had an 04 Dynamique 1.2 16v. I really liked it. Looking good in blue there.
