MK5 Clio

Wife picked this up yesterday, really impressed with it, interior is a massive step up from the previous mk4 she had and the 1.5 DCi drives brilliant so far doing 60mpg, compared to the 34mpg of the old 0.9 TCE which was the worst engine I've ever experienced !

Looks much nicer than the mk4.

Any mk2 Clio switchgear still in use on the inside?
I told my Mrs how disappointed I was after a thorough search that there is none, they have even replaced the radio control stalk behind the wheel with a new one, i preferred the old one that's been used for 20yrs lol. the only part I could find that's carried over from the mk4 was the flap that covers the 12v socket!

Had a nose around the one Stevie had from Renault, Cabin quality feels massively better than any of the old cars, definitely has a more premium feel to it

Actually looks like a nice little car, they’ve clearly up their game in build quality and premium look & feel.

Is Inferno Orange? Or a new school colour that’s just similar?

  Clio 172, i20N
I have been driving a RS Line since November 2019 with the 1.3 TCe auto.

Big step up from the MK4 and easily achieve 50mpg.

That looks lovely, wouldn't mind one of those on the drive, stunning colour!

we were exactly the same that's why we tried one over the equivalent diesel as there was quite a jump in cost between the 2! Do you find it horribly un refined to drive too?

i find it refined enough. Change at 2k revs and literally plod along. But at 70 when its hitting 3k revs it does feel like its out of its comfort zone completely.
 
  RENAULT CLIO RS LINE
Hi 172 and all i have the Clio RS LINE EDC 130 which blips the throttle in sport mode changing down which sounds good and although on paper it is not the renault sport but it feels very quick to me and more than enough to get you in trouble and like said build quality is top notch mine is in iron blue i like the orange though.
