The Appeal

The Renault Clio V6 Trophy is one of the most effective competition machines to emerge from Renault Sport's stable: a mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive reinterpretation of the humble Clio, powered by a 3.0-litre naturally aspirated V6 mounted behind the driver. On stage or circuit, few cars this compact offer such serious firepower.

This example is car #82 from the John Price V6 Trophy series, campaigned under "John Price Rallying," and it comes with strong documentation to match its provenance. It holds a UK MSA Competition Car Logbook issued in 2010 for Stage Rally (Category 1), as well as a Motorsport Ireland Logbook issued in August 2024, the latter approving it for rally, race, hillclimb/sprint, rallycross, regional sprint, and autocross, offering broad eligibility for a new owner looking to compete on either side of the Irish Sea and beyond.

The gearbox has been recently rebuilt and serviced, and the vendor states the car is in very good overall condition, reporting that it is great fun to drive. Finished in Liquid Yellow and fitted with a comprehensive suite of safety equipment including a Renault Sport welded roll cage, this is a purposeful and well-documented Clio V6 Trophy ready for its next chapter.
