2004 (54) Clio 1.2 Extreme 3. 12 months MOT, £375, Bolton NOW SOLD!!!11!1

Picked this up off the next door neighbour, and have MOT'd it and done a few jobs. It's a decent car, which I taxed with the intention of using it, but I'd really like something a bit faster and/or more interesting.

12 months MOT last week. Advisory on drop links (done), tyres (done) and front shockers slightly misty (not done). Showing just short of 63000 miles, and owned by one family from new (mother, daughter and daughter's boyfriend).

EDIT: Just got the book pack off the neighbours, and it had a timing belt last October, at 60,000 miles. Small bonus.

It has a scar on rear quarter, as seen in pics, and currently has a knock on the front of the bonnet that makes it sit a bit high, although I may have found a used bonnet for it, subject to colour match.

It's in Westhoughton, near Bolton, and it's £375 to a shiter, before I brave* the open market at around £450-£500. Can collect from local stations, and could possibly get involved in some sort of delivery caper if it involved me coming home in something cool/fast/cheap.

Pics ahoy......

Renault trim naming always made me chuckle. 1.2 16v, 75bhp, 0-60mph in 13 seconds  ... EXTREME

 

The bonnet is slightly raised on the front looking at the panel gaps? Is it secured properly or has it previously come undone?

 

These have had issues with them not latching properly, coming open when driving and smashing the windscreen + bonnet. Rather frightening when it does happen, especially as its more likely to happen at speed.

This. 

 

 
 
You're right about the name, though. Not much Extreme about this.

That's just what came to my mind!

I saw this, but those fluid filled Citroens don't do anything for me.

Almost new in my head, too!!

 

Maybe you should buy it and recreate that first kiss in a true romantic style. I reckon she'd love that.

Still like these wee cars, loved my 04 plate Dynamique, which this basically is minus alloys, leccy mirrors and auto lights/wipers.

 

One of the last decent small cars imo, the Clios which followed were wank, as are most modern small cars.
