What will you be using it for? If for road use / occasional track use, I'd go for a refresh of the standard suspension components. There's really no need to do much more as they are so capable out of the box (in my opinion anyway). Typically, the things to replace are:
Springs (I think the standard springs are expensive, but something like the Eibach Sportlines or Cooksport springs are a good choice)
Dampers
Top Mounts
Inner & outer Front ARB bushes
Lower Arms/Wishbones with new bushes and ball joints
Track Rod Ends
Inner Tie Rods
Steering Rack Bushes
Obviously you don't have to do everything - it depends how far you want to go with it. All of the above will probably cost a similar amount to a set of mid-range coilovers and it will probably leave you with a better handling car.

i put eibach sportlines on, new dampers and top mounts..and new yoko ad 08 tires ,new track rod ends ,and a visit to a wheel alignment specialist (which is worth every penny )£42 ..then the car turned into a go kart ..never drove a car with coilovers cant comment on them
best thing i have put on the car is a polybush dogbone..vibrated at 1st... then it settled down..
upgrade to a mini cooper s ha bored with the clio now, replaced the whole car nearly.
