clio dci are they any good

[Spongebob 172]

Been thinking for a while now about selling the 172,im just finding it to expensive to run and now only use to go to work..So ive been looking at other models and have seen a 1.5 dci 04 plate for 2.5k are these any good..

yes good cars, but watch out for running faults as it usually ends up needing injectors and a fuel pump.
£35 a year to tax, 60 mpg makes up for it IMO

they're not too bad. Make sure you get the 100bhp one though. Nice and nippy low down revs, and good mpg if you drive it nicely. Much better than the new ones which don't return good economy really.

i thought the 80 was the one to have.

So did I.

I had the 100 and it ran well.(think that was the top one :S) bit more power never hurt. Can't comment on the 80 really. Probably not much different though. Better how?

80 is the one to have.
Good cars but you feel the additional weight over the front axle when pushing on.
Expensive when they go wrong though as Mike says, only good for about 130k before you start getting issues.

Or 45K for my gf's mum's dci 80 she's had from new, serviced every year etc.

Good second car/runaround IMO.

I've got an 80 and I love it. 35 quid to tax. 55mpg around town. Not much cheaper out there in terms of running costs
