Description
Here for sale is my Renault sport Clio 172 in pearl black (676).
This is my 7th Renault sport so I am certainly a Renault fan boy! There is currently a 182 on my drive also still so I'm staying around!
For those that don't know this is a 2 litre 16v 3 door car built to follow on from the stunning phase 1 172.
The car is a proper old school hot hatch that is perfect as a daily just pottering about and doesn't feel quick. However if you want to enjoy it for what it was made for you will not be disappointed over a twisty B road. No fancy gadgets like modern cars but does have;
Factory xenon's
Half leather / alcantara seats
Climate control
Optional 6 disc changer under passenger seat.
Full spare alloy in boot.

The car has 4 matching Khumo tyres all round with plenty of grip. I have just had the wheels professionally powder coated in the OEM bright silver which I think suits the black car perfectly.
Has had a new headliner professionally put in in black as the old one was sagging which is common.
The paintwork has been detailed by myself and the pant is currently coated in Gyeon can coat, Gyeon view on the glass, Gyeon trim on plastics and Gyeon rim on the wheels as seen on the video. (Instagram moono16v).
The car is super clean and for me the only issue with it is the roof has been re-sprayed (previous to me). It's not the best job but you have to remember it's 25 years old and only noticeable if you are looking for it.
