Hi, just introducing myself and a question!
I've always been into Renaults - i started off with a 5 GT Turbo and a 19 16v chamade. In a few weeks i'm going to start seriously looking for a 172 ff on an 02 plate or newer.
Have done plenty of searches re things to look for, and compaired to my old GT Turbo - none seem too scarey!
Having read through a few posts though, some people have had multiple failures of the 172 engine..
Are these mainly freak cases and is the motor as tough as i thought it was, or can it be a bit fragile?
With such a big motor under the clio's bonnet does it get hot under there? Heat was what i think caused alot of the issues on the GT Turbo, but i understand the 172 is probably light years ahead design wise!
I'll post some pics when i get it, one thing i can promice it will be a black FF!
Cheers!
