Insurance Group 10, 1 Previous Owner, The Renault Clio is a fivedoor supermini thats been a household name in the UK since the early 1990s (you may remember the advertising featuring Nicole and Papa), competing for sales with a wide variety of very competent rivals. Its certainly popular, with more than a million of them finding homes in the UK since it was introduced, and this is the fourthgeneration model boasting stylish looks, economical turbocharged TCe petrol and dCi diesel engines, a practical interior and a good drive. With threedoor cars falling out of favour with buyers, Renault made the decision to make this Clio fivedoor only, but has cleverly disguised the rear door handles so it looks like a sleeker model when viewed sideon. Putting the door handle in the rear pillar does dramatically reduce rear visibility though. But are all these stylish features, economical engines and a spacious interior enough to see off its rivals? It has got plenty to defeat, including the Ford Fiesta, Peugeot 208, Vauxhall Corsa, Volkswagen Polo, SEAT Ibiza and Skoda Fabia. Not to mention lesscommon models like the Citroen C3, Hyundai i20 and Mazda 2.The Clio couldnt be anything other than a Renault, featuring a look thats similar to every other car in the range, with similarly sharp lights to the Kadjar crossover and a dashboard similar to the one in the Captur. Having a fivedoor body is more practical, while the car sits lower and wider than the version it replaced, which contributes to a lower centre of gravity and makes the car feel more grown up and safe on the road. When it was introduced however, Renault injected a little fun into the car, with various bright colour options and customisation packs to personalise the Clio including a selection of door mirror caps, grille bars, rear panel skirts, lower door protectors and wheel finishes, as well as a choice of roof graphics. To create a more bespoke interior, there was a menu of options regarding the dashboard, door panels, steering wheel, grab handles, gear lever surround, air vent bezels, upholstery materials and optional floor mats. However, this has now been consolidated into just a few options that come in much more muted tones a sign that people dont necessarily want all these wacky features. Avoiding crazy colours should help make the car more desirable to the dealer if you hand it back at the end of the finance contract, and easier to sell on if you buy it outright. .12V Power Socket Front, 16in Allow Wheels Philia, 6.2L Glovebox, ABS with EBA Emergency Brake Assist, Air Conditioning Manual, Airbags Deactivation Front and Side Driver and Passenger, Automatic Folding Door Mirrors, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Bumpers Body Coloured, Central Door Locking, Chrome Look Insert on Lower Side Doors with Clio Embossing, Cruise Control with Speed Limiter, Deadlocking, Diamond Black, Distance Warning Alert, Door Handles Body Coloured Front, Door Mirrors Body Coloured, Driver and Passenger Front Side Head and Curtain Airbags, Driver Seat Belt Height Adjustable, ECall, Easy Link 7in Screen with Nav and SP Replication, Eco Mode, Electric Windows Front, ESC Electronic Stability Control, ETC Electronic Traction Control, Exterior Rear Hidden Door Handles, Extra Tinted Windows Rear and Tailgate, Front and Rear No Seatbelt Warning Sound, Front Driver Window with Anti Pinch and One Touch Control, Full LED Front and Rear Headlamps Integrating Daytime Running Lights, Full Size Spare Wheel, Gear Change Indicator, Handsfree Keycard with Push Button StartStop Function, Headrests Rear x3, HSA Hill Start Assist, ISOFIX Child Seat Fixing Points on Rear Outermost Seats, LDW Lane Departure Warning, LED Front Fog Lights, LKA Lane Keep Assist, Locking Fuel Cap, Over Speed Prevention, Parking Sensors Rear, Power Assisted Steering Electric Variable, RAID Renault Anti Intruder Device Automatic Door Locking, Rear Door and Window Child Locking Function Front Driver Door Control Panel for Rear Door, Rear Fog Light, Rear Seats 6040 Split and Fixed Base, Rear Spoiler Body Coloured, Remote Central Locking with Thatcham Approved Immobiliser Thatcham Cat 2, Seats Drivers Height Adjustment, Steering Wheel Height and Reach Adjustable, Steering Wheel Leather, Trip Computer, TSR Traffic Sign Recognition, Tyre Inflation Kit, Tyre Pressure Warning Light, Variable Speed on Front Windscreen Wipers, Windscreen Wipers Rear
