Has the Campus been discontinued?

[JohnH]

Been looking at Renault's website and there's no sign of the Clio Campus on there. Has the Clio II finally bit the dust?

 

[DannyR]

Yes.

 

[jesus]

They were gay anyway.

 

[ThePea]

You can still get the van version. I think it's just known as the Renault Campus van; no mention of the name Clio anymore

 

[Tucker]

hoorah!

Why?

 

[Cooksport]

They were gay anyway.

LOL!

 

[cat171]

Why?

because they looked so awful.

Good point!!

Had one as a courtesy, worst car I've ever driven.

 

[scott_evo]

mines is a campus, but not the gay one with the number plate on the bumper, mines is on the tail gate

Reminded my somewhat of a wheelie bin

 

[jesus]

Plus they were mostly made with 8v engines - surely a step backwards?

I was relieved when they gave me a micra the 2nd time!!!!

The engine sounds like a dieing cat!!

Thank god if they have been discontinued! Hate them!
I'm sure they were just a cheap way of renault getting rid of all the mk2 shells they had lying around...

That was the point in them iirc

I thought it's coz the original lot of MK3's weren't selling well?

i was told it was being sold until the twingo came out, as the mk3 was a fair bit bigger then the mk2.

 

[JohnH]

What's so crap with them apart from the rubbish rear end facelift? Where they despecced from the original car or something? I love the Clio II (had two of them)

 

[theduck]

I thought the campus was just a mk2 ph2/3 just with a dodgy facelift

 

[SC03OTT]

lol, it depended what one you got. mine just looks like a mk2 ph2. some had the dodgy face lift. just depended on what renault found lying about at the time.

 

[Plummer]

I have the dodgy face lift!

Not for much longer though! :approve:

Ah maybe thats what I was told aswell actually.

Yes!

I like the mk2, have driven a couple of them and was very impressed hence why I decided to look at clios and ended up with mine.

But the campus is completely different to drive and the interior seems like it had just come out of the 80's! The one I had as a courtesy car only had 4000 miles on it, but you wouldn't know it.

Gear change was like sturring coal. Wasn't impressed really.

I believe the Campus Sport was better?
