I used to “have” a Clio for work, first version, like a British racing green, can’t remember which engine but will have been a 1.8 or 2.0i or thereabouts. Great cars, comfortable seats (seemed to be a Renault thing), blended in everywhere and it was bombproof. It was also very rapid. One of my all time faves for work.

You would have done all the same kind of stuff with a Golf and you would have spent way more to buy the car in the first place.
Once you get out and use this, you'll realise the work was worth it. If not, fix all the little jobs and I might be tempted to buy it hah!

This car has all the bad points of classic car ownership, with none of the benefits - it's a Clio!
Wishing I'd held out and bought a mk2 Golf.
