Kylie - The Clio 1.2 16v Dynamique

Advantages: Fun, cheap to run and insure, stylish and safe.
Disadvantages: Leaky sunroofs.

...is based on a 2004 Renault Clio 1.2 16v Dynamique.

After having an accident in my previous Clio (a 1.6 16v Dynamique) I set out looking for a new car, eventually I found myself (after much looking) the following car…

A 2004 Renault Clio 1.2 16v Dynamique in flame red, the colour I really wanted, my previous car had digital climate control and an electric sunroof so I purposefully found a car that also had these features.
...did replace it with a Renault option stereo the Sony CDX-MP40 which worked with the Clio display and Steering wheel controls.

Despite all the technology and gadgets in the car I was always disappointed that there wasn't a light in the glove box despite the fact that the glove box was also air-conditioned.

On occasions the sports suspension fitted to the car as standard (being as it's a Dynamique model) did feel a little ... more

A bit of je ne sais quoi (Renault Clio 1.2 5-door Authentique)

Advantages: beautiful, lovely drive
Disadvantages: safety

The renault clio 1.2 5 door is my first car, for now over 4 years and I have loved every moment driving it. ===Car Specs:=== Make: Renault Model: Clio Variant: 1.2 Dynamique 16v 5dr Colour: Black Fueltype: Petrol Bodytype: Hatchback Transmission: Manual Doors: 5 Power Steering, Electric Mirrors, Electric Windows, Adjustable Steering Column, Remote Central Locking, Immobiliser, Head Restraints, Height Adjustable Seat, Abs, Child Locks, Side Air Bags, ...
...===My opinion:=== The renault clio has been a lovely drive from the day I bought it. At a modest 1.2L engine, its light bodywork has meant it has not detracted from its acceleration. The car drives extremely smooth and despite its compact size it is extremely spacious inside. My car has only driven approximately 25000 miles, so I guess it has not had the time on the road to deteriorate, even so, the car still feels as if I have just bought it. In ...

My Clio

Advantages: space and looks good
Disadvantages: uses too much petrol and insurance is high

Hello, this is my first review, so please bear with me while I get the hang on this. I bought my Clio in August 2005 brand new. I have to admit I don't clock up many miles! My car is still quite new and even has that new smell in it. I bought the Clio because I wanted something different from a Corsa, they are too common and plastic like. My Clio is black and that shows up all the scratches, it looks good though. It has five spoke alloys that I ...
...handle, if you don't want to go fast you don't have to. It has a 6 CD changer in it, I think that was an optional extra, it is very good and sounds amazing when it is turned up loud. The inside has enough space for five adults, a big bonus of having five doors means the back seems slightly bigger than a three door and people can get in and out easier. The Clio does use more petrol than some other small cars, it might be because it is a 1.2 or because ...

The Clio - Smart, pretty and perfect for small people!

Advantages: Economical, comfortable and fun.
Disadvantages: Sometimes feels a little slow, if you're tall it might not be for you.

The Clio, is a fantastic little car. There are so many good points to it. I really like the way it looks, compact and round, it reminds me a bit of a chubby baby. The interior is smart and doesn't seem cheap, unlike other cars I've driven. The extra's you get on the Dynamique version are worth the extra money e.g. the air condition, heated wing mirrors, automatic windscreen wipers and my favourite, the automatic headlights. Ecomonically it is brilliant ...
...only being a 1.2 litre engine and I've not had any problems with mine so far. I'm no expert on the 'drive' and performance of cars but the Clio works for me. It's a good little run around and the 16V give it that extra kick. There are times when after driving my partners larger engine car, that the Clio seems quite slow, but then I didn't buy it for it's speed. There are many things that I like about this car but probably the thing that sold it to ...

Renault Clio

Advantages: Automatic headlights and wipers.. sports seats
Disadvantages: noisy sunroof

I bought this car back in May 2007. Mine is a black, 53 plate and cost me £3500 from a local dealership. As it's nearly top of the range you get the bucket sports seats. These are unbelievably comfortable. I drove all the way to Alton Towers, which is 170 miles from me, and was very comfortable throughout the whole journey. No numb bum LOL It handles the road very well!! It is also good on petrol..if driven sensibly. Quite a nippy little car for ...
...of yet. The only downside is the sunroof. I don't know if it's a common fault or not but I think there's a problem with the seal. it can be noisy while driving.. I just cover it up with my music. The automatic headlights and wipers are cool too..especially if your lazy like me lol! Headlights can be a pain sometimes though.. they come on while driving in multi story carparks and such lol! The boot is very spacious for such a small car too! The ...

Renault Clio 2002 1.2 16V Dynamique

Advantages: Fast, Cheap Tax, Cheap Insurance, Cheap to run, Easlily Modifiable
Disadvantages: Creaky sunroof (happily modified under warrenty as is a known fault

Brilliant car, Looks the part with alloy wheels, all the mod-cons including 3 rear head restraints and electric windows, and mirrors. Very comfortable due to sports seats and suspension, adjustable steering wheel, seat bels, head rests, recline, and also raise lower seat! Very quick of the mark beats most 1.4's! Sounds nice even as standard. Easy to modify if you so wish plenty of kit available. Helpful Service department. Feels very safe and sturdy, easy and nice to drive. Goood value for money and many available! Very spacious for size! My first car very happy with it and glad I chose this. I bought a 02 reg 2 years old done 12000 miles for 6500, my insurance is 1600 (cheap for somone of my age just passed their test! ...

Review of Renault Clio 1.2

Renault clio 1.2 16v Expression

Advantages: Comfortable ride with willing engine and excellent value for money
Disadvantages: Dash marks and scratches very easily

Previosly owned a Citroen saxo bought new - Which was nippy and reliable but maybe a little cramped and a little outdated. Decided to change after two years and looked around at whats on offer-Couldnt find anything much better until saw the new clio. Was impressed and put in an order immediatley-The renault dealer franchise was excellent and had to wait 4 weeks for car as they are built to order. On reciving the car have found the ride quality excellent-the power steering [electronic] excellent-Fuel economy averaging the 50 mark. The car is very spacious for front passengers but not so roomy for rear ones-depending on seat position-Cd player very good sound with six speakers and best of all a very willing 16v engine. Have just done over 1000 miles from new and have had no faults-100% reliability. Only advice on the down side is ...

Review of Renault Clio 1.2

Good at first from new, then all hell broke loose

Advantages: Good handling
Disadvantages: Expensive to repair simple problems

I have owned my Renault Clio 1.2 16v Billabong since July 2003. Renault offered me a good deal, with this particular Clio being limited edition with it's interior. I bought this car on the recommendation of a friend, who said they were reliable. I think they are a very smart looking car, and am not liking the newer style 'squarer' model. The lights are nice, and the interior lovely. I found it to be nippy, and good to handle around the bends. I had 4 years of reliable driving on it, before the problems started. Having looked after my car, and being very proud that I bought it new, I was surprised that it failed the MOT in 2007. The reason being for the shock absorbers on the car had rotted. Having had this sorted, the car then really started playing up. Following a long trip, I saw that the 'Toxic Fuel Monitoring' light ...
