What’s it got?

Known as a ‘Full Fat’ Clio 182, this example boasts both Cup pack options, comprising the front and rear splitter / spoiler, as well as the lowered suspension, wider track and anthracite wheels. Inside there’s half leather seats (an expensive option) and toys to play with including climate control, cruise control and traction control. The set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3s indicate a car that has come from considered ownership, whilst the Xenon headlights ensure adequate illumination after dark. The original service book and history file is present and correct.

How does it drive?

With a 2. 0 litre 16v engine, front-wheel drive, 180hp and a kerb weight of just over 1, 100kg, the Clio Sport is entertaining. 0-60mph takes just 6. 7 seconds but a Clio Sport isn’t really about pure speed – it’s the way the car does it. This well cared for example does exactly what the little Clio Sport was always intended for. It’s a superb B road basher that feels like new.

Why this one?

This superb example comes from long term ownership. It is in exceptional condition inside and out, a real credit to careful stewardship by just two previous owners. It has been used and enjoyed regularly despite the low mileage, another hallmark of a well cared for car. The history file is exceptional, with stamped service book and hard copy receipts covering spending since the car was new. Complete with two keys, one unused and a full owners book pack.
