This must be the highest mileage Clio 197/200 out on the road and a potential bargain too if its in as good condition as the seller states its in: 160k isn't too bad to aim for

Would probably make a good runaround or track slag. Be a shame to ruin it though if its as good as it looks in the pictures

Well its only 32000 miles a year average so could have spent its life on a, b and country roads. Well I can think of much better motorway cruisers than the 197 and it would seem a shame to use one on a motorway all the time if you ask me

seller states - no wear on the seats - drivers seat sides look worn/ creased

Wonder how many gearboxes it's had?

If I knew what I know now I wouldn't have bought my Gordini. I would have bought a car like this and add coilovers and the Meg engine

that is at least £1000 over priced with that mileage on it. The seller is on drugs if he thinks it's half price. keeps refering to "if it was on 30k"......but it's not. Probably an ideal candidate for an engine conversion, but you'd never get it for what it's actually worth

i think he'd take £3500 if you waved cash under his nose. how much is the rough fitting cost of the meg engine?

36k a year on motorways must have been beyond dull.

he'd have to be asking under £3k for it for me to even call. 10 years of use in 5 years.....have a look what a 10 year old 172 is worth

Does seem overpriced with that sort of mileage.

Its a French car so is hardly going to last forever.

The misuse of the word "mint" during a sale really gets on my nerves. If its been used or has left the packaging then it is not mint. Please widen your vocabulary. Thanks

Rant over.
