1 of just 3059 UK-supplied Phase 2 Clio 172s

Only three former keepers
Benefitted from a cambelt change, water pump and brake renewal around 1, 000 miles ago
At its 2000 launch, the 172 rejuvenated the hot hatch market and blew the Golf/ 206 opposition into the weeds. It looked keenly priced at first, although when the Civic Type R came along in 2001 – closely followed by the Focus ST170 in 2002 – Renault had to cut £400 off its price to compete. Power was provided by a 2. 0 L 16-valve engine which was capable of a top speed of 220 km/ h (137 mph), transmitted to the road by the front wheel drive (FWD) with a five-speed manual gearbox. British sales amounted to 3, 059 Phase 2 examples.
Manufactured in 2002, the Clio was first registered in the United Kingdom on the 12th of March that year. Fitted with the aforementioned 1998cc four-cylinder 16-valve engine with the five-speed manual transmission, the Renault is finished in Silver with combined leather and Alcantara interior upholstery. Having covered a mere 21, 571 miles from new (at time of consignment), the Clio has had just three former keepers. Benefitting from renewed brakes all-round, a cambelt change, new water pump, replacement alternator, a new battery and a full service approximately 1, 000 miles previous, ‘DU02 NWG’ is offered with the original book pack, as well as a collection of invoices, previous MOTs, a current V5C and two keys.
