SUMMARY
A mid-mounted V6 - quirky styling and made in small numbers, this fabulously French radical rocket is a remarkable creation that thankfully slipped through the net of sensibility.
DESCRIPTION
- For the Phase 2, RenaultSport took a Laguna-derived 3-litre V6 engine producing 255bhp and 221lb/ft torque, dropped it in the middle of the short Clio chassis, hooked up a rear-wheel drive system and mated it to a 6-speed manual transmission
- Finished in Iceberg Silver, this example has been with our vendor since 2013 as part of his exclusive Collection
- Supplied with its original handbook pack and original Renault marketing material, the car will come to the sale with a fresh MOT
- Only 1,309 Clio V6 255 Phase 2s were built for the global market and Renault's 'radical rocket' is quickly achieving cult status and must be worthy of a slot in any serious Collection
