Green Clio V6!???

[moono16v]

Just spotted on the a34 kingsway near cheadle. I was sat in the back of a truck and you went past on opposite carriageway. What was it? Couldn't tell if it was a "proper" bee but it was sure noisy!

Acid Yellow?

Yellowy green colour

 

[moono16v]

No mate like a British racing green.

 

[JamesBryan]

Oh right.

They didn't do one in that colour so it must be a rep.

 

[Knuckles]

Or a respray.

A few years back, people liked to make race car reps out of them

Ye I know thy didn't make that colour but the noise of it made me think it had something under the....boot maybe?!

Afaik that bloke is from round these parts.

I enquired about that green one last year, I'd have loved it but all the decals are lacquered in

Is that a proper V6? Comes up as a Clio RL (but shows as being a 3.0l)

 

[cat171]

Yeah it's real.

 

[moono16v]

That looks like it yes! Like I say I was sat in the back of a truck and spotted it last second!

Currently says sorn on a vehicle check. The car did sell last year @Knuckles and I'm pretty sure it was crashed on a track day and sold on to someone else on the spot!

Oh dear!

That must've been the reason for the price

I'm not sure if I worded that correctly.
I believe it was advertised around £13k. Is that the price you enquired at?
Somebody bought it at that price and started putting back to original then had an accident on track and then it sold again that day at the track.

Ah, I see.

Yeah I enquired when it was £14k, a week or two later it was £13k then I stopped looking

That's unfortunate. Do you have any pics/info on the accident?

Did it have a Mr bean briefcase on the roof ?
