I had the 2-ltr saloon for a while in the mid-90s. Very good engine and gearbox. Boot space pitifully small. A-pillar can rust with alacrity at base of windscreen.

They were pretty valueless until recently and have largely disappeared, which together with the silly money Quattro turbos now go for is what’s put asking prices up, I suppose. And I thought E30s were overpriced. At least they’re fun to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datsuncog Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Quote This car has huge historic value and should be treaded as such. 1 of 5 on the roads and known in exsistance. How the ever-living fuck can an unpopular transmission variant of a facelifted Mk1 Clio, which turned out to be something of an engineering dead-end, possibly be classed as having 'huge historic value'? He sounds like he's trying to sell the Rover Gas Turbine car, the way he's crapping on. What sort of museum does he reckon would fall over themselves at fucking Bonhams, of all places, to snap this up? I understand The Isle Of Sheppey Museum of Shit Gearbox Versions of Tedious Small French Hatchbacks closed its doors sometime in 2014, despite huge public outcry and sternly-worded petitions to Parliament, so he's maybe overplaying his cards a smidge. Nothing whatsoever in the listing about the condition of the bodywork - and I note all the pics have been taken in the rain, while standing on the opposite side of the road. For nine-and-a-half bags. Fuck right off. Anyway, I understand @R9UKE of this parish bought a red Clio Zoom for the sheer novelty value a few years back - for all I know, he still has it too...
