2006 renault Clio reviews

Renault Clio Dymanique 2006

I have been very impressed with the new Clio. We had the car for two years from new and not a single trip to the dealer except for a smashed wing mirror after a bus decided to overtake a little to close. I am 6" tall and the car feels really roomy up front, more so than the previous model. Would recommend the Dymanique trim over the cheaper models as it looks and feels a really good quality interior. The 1.4 is giving us an average of 36mpg which is ok, but considering power is limited I hoped it would be a little more frugal. The new 1.2 Turbo looks a great choice so would opt for that if buying again. With two child seats in the back, the middle seat is very tight, but the boot is deceptively big and even with a pram etc stuffed in, always had enough room for a normal shop. I really can’t find anything to fault on the car - it’s just lovely to drive with good road holding and a nice quality cabin. Just in the process of upgrading to a Scenic for extra space for the kids but everyday I still have the Clio I feel sad that it’s going - I really will miss this lovely car.
