Strange Question

[s13asc]

My Clio 182 log book has a French stamp in it, not in the service records just a company's stamp on the first page. A vague translation mentions something about exportation and the company is based in Paris.

The rear tyres I think are still the originals (car has 25k on it) and has French wording on the tyre 'cote exterieur' iirc

This may be a daft question but are all Clio Sport's imported then registered as UK cars? I appreciate the cars are made in France and shipped over for sale just find it strange there is a French company stamp in the log book, I thought it would have been sent straight from the factory to the dealer...

Some are imports, i think you can tell if the car has no alarm or window etching its normally an import.

You can tell on the logbook by the letters at the start of the chassis number-

It states on the logbook it is a UK vehicle, my last car was a Japanese import and had the date of first UK registration whereas the Clio just states it is a UK car...

The steering wheel is in the right place anyway so can't be French!

Could be Australian or Japanese tho
