hello guys,
im planning to buy a mk1 clio V6 in early july but having not driven one before, id like to question its performance.
my coleague has an 04 reg golf R32. now i have to say the golf is easily the slowest "hot hatch" ive ever been in and doesnt even reach 60mph in 2nd gear. how the mags claim 0-60 in 6.4 is beyond me as it needs 3rd gear, and he could only get a 15.4 1/4 mile at north weald.
questions:
is the clio the same in performance i.e not reaching 60 in 2nd?
what do i need to look out for when i go and view one, mileage will be below 10k.
ill be using the car as my everyday car as its all i will have. sod the boot space and turning circle, the looks and exclusivity are well worth it, just wondering about the performance.
also, if anybody in essex owns one, id love to take a look and maybe get a drive in it...
