[Little Newms]

And wing mirrors

 

[CocoPops]

CAT D is the issue there, bonnet is easy to sort.

 

[Ratty]

shiny M3 style mirrors need to go aswell!

 

[Tom]

that looks like one near me, and thats got an engine in the front.

 

[Dash]

Oh dear. There are only two classic Renaults, the 5 Turbo and the MK1 v6. Please dont tamper with these.

[bsimmer3000]

looks like a chav may have gone past in his chav mobile (no models mentioned but ya can guess what im thinking lol) and swaped bonnets.

 

[zack172]

CHEAP AS CHIPS!!

THERE ARE ONLY ABOUT 400 MK1 VEEs! THEY ARE ALREADY INDIVIDUAL ENOUGH. THEY DO NOT NEED CHAVVING UP TO STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD!

LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!
Also, considering you can pick up a genune mk1 51 plate V6 with one or two careful owners (not ex-cruise-boyz), in original spec, and no insurance write off history for £13k, Id go so far as to say that this fcukd up example is about £2.5k overpriced!

 

[eugegall]

its a good car for the price but as above. do leave them alone. i didt know the fact about 400 made. wow

 

[Phill1978]

but as the price drop its enevitable that people with less money and less taste will wreck these cars completley with huge chrome rims and eight exhausts.

at least they wont be able to get their mates in the back and wont be able to keep it for long die to grp20 insurance and 27mpg (not that they will ever lift their foot from the floor so 12mpg)

the great thing is i cant wait for them to ride about thinkin its the fastest thing and thn passs them in my mildly tweaked 182.

Does the V6 have any sort of boot?

 

[® Andy]

Yes ... enough to get this much in on a shopping trip to IKEA

[Gilbert_Ratchet]

hmm ok lol. Is it much smaller than the normal clio and is there anything up front?

 

[137699]

Yes there is a surprisingly useful amount of space under the bonnet, also a shelf behind the seats. The boot (shown above) gets very hot, so you have to be careful what you put in there - no good for food shopping or anything melt-able!

 

[patty]

under the bonnet isnt bad actually...

 

[Gilbert_Ratchet]

Look at that back end!!! Id love one of these.

 

[® Andy]

No problems with practicality with a V6 as I proved on my (well publicised at the time) trip to IKEA. Ironically I went back there on Friday but didnt take pictures. However from the first trip ...

And I didnt even need to use the space under the bonnet which to be honest is better for soft items.

 

[137699]

I had an air conditioner on the passenger seat back from B&Q last week in its box! Made looking left at junctions a bit tricky!

Have also transported two front tyres wedged nicely on the engine cover, though I doubt it would take 2 rears due to the extra width!

Oh and me and the missus did a trip to Swindon a few weeks ago - got a full weeks shopping on the shelf behind the seats, and filled the boot, bonnet & passenger footwell with guff bought from the MacArthur Glenn outlet centre. Can hold a surprisingly large load considering, providing your passenger doesnt mind having no legroom!

 

[Darren S]

Havent any of you guys heard of delivery vans? I wouldnt lower the status of a Vee by carting around odds & ends from Ikea or even new tyres!

D.

 

[137699]

I agree, but its not always an option! Anyways, it was a much better blast across the Hampshire/Wiltshire x-country roads in the vee than it would have been in a tranny van!

 

[Ali]

Id buy it...take all the bits off, as long as the cars straight, its a bargain imo.
