Hi John,

It's OK but tread very warily. Renault build quality was pretty shaky in the early 2000s and by 2006 the problem was only beginning to get sorted out. The upside is that the Clio is mechanically pretty simple, so there's a bit less to go wrong, but make sure everything electrical is free from gremlins and pay particular attention to the suspension - the Clio can be pretty fragile in that department so listen for untoward noises from under the car (creaks, bumps, banging etc) and check the top of the suspension mounts for any signs of damage or repair.
