Hi guys,
I've been the owner of a Black Clio 197 R27 F1 edition (number 404/500) for just over 2 years now. Been viewing the forum from a distance but now decided to join and interact! My experiences with the clio so far, I think we can probably all agree that it's a great car, a real head turner. Had a few of the common problems such as my recaro seat bolsters had worn quite badly at just 25k, I have since had them retrimmed by a recaro specialist. Also currently have the door seal problem, both passenger and drivers seals are split. My steering wheel trim has pretty much all peeled off and my heater is on the way out as well as a few rattles and squeaks that are present quite often! Also had a quite a bit of bad luck with the car recently with my door mirror being smashed off (currently held on with black tape), then I had my passenger door keyed with 5 scratches so had to have that resprayed, I've had someone open their door on my car in a car park and have a nasty dent on the back panel (no details left) and just last week I had another car park incident as I came back to my car and someone had smashed into the passenger side rear wing and bumper (no details left again!) so it's a bit under the weather at the moment .
