Floyed phoned me yesterday and said the earliest id be getting the new v6 would be October. I assume he got this info off of you guys?? Whats the crack? Im sure all potential Mk2 V6 owners would like to know.

Any info very much appreciated.

 

[project 254]

Mine is arriving in september

As I understood they dont start production for the UK until September ?

Project, unless im very much mistaken, I DONT THINK SO!

But i could be wrong!?!

 

[Jeremy Townsend]

Yes, Floyd spoke to me. We were expecting build to start in July but it isnt possible. Therefore after the August shutdown the earliest it can start is September. Ill have some more details next week

Why the heck are all the write-ups and reports in every car magazine saying that the Mk2 V6 Clio is on sale from July onwards?

Imagine the furore at the moment, if after advertising that the new Harry Potter book was to be released today, the publishers decided that they arent going to start the printing until October!

They should never have given a July date if they cant keep to it. Why didnt Renault begin building these cars first, then advertise the selling date once they had built up some stock. This is going to create desperation for those who are absolutely desperate to get their hands on one, perhaps encouraging people to pay way over the odds as demand outstrips supply!

Not easy either for those with a Mk1 who want to sell their older car first. I have seen some Mk1s for sale on the Auto-Trader online, perhaps folk who thought they would be getting a Mk2 in July.

cause Renault are sh*te are delivering.

W have been waiting months for the new magane then they send 2.......we are mean to have 87......but they said we cant have them till Oct. THey give no support, no cars no nothing but expect sales.......the france HQ hasnt got a freaking clue.
