GIVE IT A SHARE PLEASE.
This Clio v6 is one of only two press cars left and driven by jenson button at silverstone for a tv series called pulling power.
She has featured on men and motors and in many magazines which I have.
This Clio is very rare given its provenance and being one of only a handful of Xreg press cars that were made. (I believe only 4)
A press launch car, this Renault Clio V6 was first seen in 2001 when Jenson Button drove it up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. There is a video of Jenson online where he 'donuts' it at the top of the hill and gets told off by one of the marshals! Renault then loaned the Clio to Jenson, who took the car to Monaco where it featured in a photo-shoot for a Renault Magazine article (summer 2001 edition, copy available). Jenson is pictured driving the Clio through the famous Monaco tunnel and describes how he would lap the circuit in his Benetton-Renault Formula 1 car. �This Clio is an early right-hand drive production model and, being a Renault UK press car, carries a special registration number.�Finished in silver with blue interior, 'X932 OFC' has covered only 37k miles from new, we have the V5C document and a copy of the aforementioned magazine article as well as copies of the video for anyone to see. �As their numbers have decreased over time this hottest of 'hot hatches' has become increasingly collectible, and none more so than this ex-Renault press car with its unique history.
Renault Clio v6 HPI clear with 37k miles.
The car has wanted for nothing.
Everything works as it should, even the aircon, nice and cold.
The engine and gearbox are smooth and responsive.
Engine, exhaust, suspension etc are all standard.
The brakes and disks are all brand new all round.
The important cam belt and water pump change was carried out at 37k miles, along with all fluids for the engine, gearbox filters etc.
The car has full service history supported by an extensive binder of receipts and documents.
The bodywork is in excellent condition and so is the interior.
Original tape player with under seat 6 CD changer.
I have owned the car for 14 years and I’m the 4th owner, I have both keys and original handbook.
I will put a brand new Mot on her for the new owner once I receive a deposit.
Thanks for looking and any questions give me a shout.
I’m willing to take anything in as a px up or down for trade price ie Car, Van, Bike, Quad, Motorhome etc. what you got just try me.
I’ve priced her to sell and dropped her from £40k to £35k for a quick sale and believe given it’s provenance she’s a very cheap Clio v6.
