Well bit the bullet and bought another Renault CLio 172.

Bought it from a girl who has had it from new, on a 53 plate ( 2 months warranty left) 20000 miles, FSH, not a single scratch on it!!

It has 4 new continental tires and a magic tree (vanilla)

Comes with the usual 172 kit and pace, just going to add a cup splitter to the front and thats it.

Got it for 6700 which i feel is a great price for the mileage.

The missus is happy again, i think.

Good choice ;-)

(near enough identical to mine)

But get a Cup splitter on there, makes a huge difference. And be prepared to replace the exhaust - if it's still got the original one on an 03 plate you're lucky! Really, for the money you've got a lot of car and performance. Mine still makes me smile despite reliability problems...
