Buying a Clio V6........or not!!
Discussion
Hi Guys
Normally hang out in the Italian Bull section of the site but I find myself in a rather unusual position. I have decided to add to the fleet by buying a Clio V6 Mk2. Not fussed about colour but really needs to have less than 30k on the clock as I am buying as a long term collector.
Eagerly went onto the classified section and found some nice cars but when I called them they were all sold. I've never had this situation where the model of car sells so quickly - I am normally looking for specific colour Italian supercars (92 ever made in UK) which are far less in numbers than V6's but it must be a sign of the cult following V6's have.
Anyone know of good examples either at dealers or private ( but I prefer dealers)
Cheers
Neil

Nothing on there at the moment, but keep an eye on the forums are www.renaultsport.co.uk theres a few regular dealers on there that seem to have them from time to time.
The French Car Show is also on next month, that could be a good source.

Well Guys - I found one.
Collected it yesterday and will be giving her a Zymol polish tomoz.
I have to say after being used to supercar handling the Clio is RIGHT UP THERE!! - Its so hyper-active and has awesomely sharp twitchy handling, but yet feels you get secure and planted when you get the chance to test her.
Although I didn't want to spin her on my virgin trip.....
Time to get onto Clio.net
