It's possible that you have lower spec Clio dogbone mount, it's smaller than Williams/Valver item.

Is it the small end of the dogbone or the large end? There are dogbones with the small end that is thinner than most on the Williams/valver. See my pictures in this thread as I had a similar problem:

You either need to shave a bit off the polybush or buy a new 'standard' dogbone (although I have owned my car for 14 years and am pretty sure my smaller one was therefore fitted as OE by the factory, but most other cars seem to have a different item fitted!)
