what sort of mileage can the 172 take?

[Rob669]

I think low miles is only an issue for those into buying and selling cars and having the latest model. I'm just planning on keeping mine as it's a crackin' little car that suits me fine.

I met a guy from here who had a ph1 172 it had done 177,000 miles! and still running well! It was still running on orginal internals although pretty much everything else had been done at least twice ie cambelt and shocks!

FYI - it was also running an lpg conversion!

Because people on this forum, and cliosport owners in general, are properly fussy girls. Most of them dont use or drive their cars properly, and moan about mileage and a few stone chips. ffs its a b-road tool, not a shiny driveway ornament.

Amen

The Renault engine is a good one....just look after it and I'm sure it'll do well over 100,000 miles

I've got a way to go yet though..car only just gone over to 23k

my 172 is on 82K and running as good as ever. feels faster than it did at 35K

i had a 1.1 saxo and got 159 thousand out of it and a rag the balls of it... easy
