Description
Almost OEM stock 182 Trophy in brilliant mechanical, excellent interior and good exterior condition.
I've had this car nearly 5 years and covered maybe more miles than I shoud have, but for good reason. It's been amazing but I need to grow up and stop hurtling around in this brilliant but mad car. Everything you've heard about them is right - very little comes close, at any price, however i'm going to focus on my RX8 and building a hill-climb car, so the proceeds from the sale of the Clio will be going to a good cause.
Some things to know...
• Yes it's higher mileage than average at 138k miles, but the car is in excellent working condition.
• Good tyres all round. Michelin Pilot Sport 3's with 4-5mm across each tyre.
• 2 keys, service books, manuals and history going back 15 years.
• Original Renault accident pack and tyre foam.
• MOT till November 2025.
• The underside is fully undersealed/ weatherproofed so no rust there, however there is some surface corrosion on exposed suspension components.
• Trendline seats are in excellent condition, no rips. Rear bench seat is 100% (See image).
• Recent new battery, coil pack, quality leads and Bosch spark plugs.
• In general the paint's good, though there is some slight fading on the plastic door handles (See image).
• Some stone chips on the bonnet and a small depression dent (See image).
• Sachs dampers are functioning perfectly but were serviced in the past.
• Turini wheels were refurbished a few ago and still in near perfect condition.
• New rear brake pads and full service at recent MOT.
• Retrimimed (In leather) steering wheel.
• Belts and dephaser changed at K-Tec 3 1/ 2 years ago.
• Pipercross CREN11 steel exhaust system.
• K-Tec intake replacement but original airbox comes with the car, and I can refit if you don't want the cone filter.
The car is in South London, but sometimes in the in Devon near Lyme Regis. Not likely to let you test drive it, but happy to demonstrate and let you have a good look. You won't be disappointed with this one.
Remember 2025 is this cars 20th anniversary so there will be lots of interest and publicity if you decide to sell it on. Demand will be great. If the sale price is what I’m looking for, or very close then I’ll throw in the Renault promo DVD and a stack of period magazines with reviews.
