Still very practical and good as a daily drive. With the range rover in for repairs for over a month now I have had no choice but to use the Clio as a daily. Tesco shop done with no dramas or broken eggs :grin:

she definitely needs a clean inside and out. 119k on the clock. Think I have done about 700 miles since ownership.

No salt just mud and water. To be fair I have only driven it 3 times in the last 2 months. Still makes me smile everytime.

I took mine out the other day just to keep it ticking over...but then even thought it was relatively dry on the road I still had to wash it to make sure I got any salt off....and yes, that meant getting in under the wheel arches. Was worth it though.

If you want to take it there, you should look out for the Oldtimers GP. I go to the ring quite regularly and this is the event I most want to take my Williams to as the whole place is rammed with classic cars and there's usually a large Renault contingent from various European clubs that set themselves up in 1 of the car parks.
I've even managed to buy some pretty rare new parts for mine the last couple of times I went :-D

This sounds great mate. Defo what I want to do. You might not know but how much is it to drive around the track? I am sure I can find out online but hey you are the knowledgable one :-)

Hope you are safe and well mate.

I think I'm only safe & well because I'm not allowed out to play on racetracks atm :lol:

It costs 25 euros during the week and 30 euros per lap at the weekends. The new season starts in a few weeks and as far as I know there's no plans to change the prices for this year
