Vendor supplied images
Highlights
- Rare mid-engine hot hatch with 255 HP

- Only 10,000 km driven in the last 10 years
The Appeal
It's generally accepted that the Clio is one of the best European cars to ever come from that heady period of the 90s, when superminis were king - but it's arguably the spirited performance of the V6 hot hatch that steals the most attention. When it was released, the Phase 2 V6 was the most powerful serial produced hot hatch in the world with 252bhp at its command, fighting off the likes of the sports-minded bods of Italy and Spain alike - so it's little wonder they, out of all of the V6s, became so beloved.
This particular example has been well looked after, and offers a great opportunity for any petrolhead to get behind the wheel of a truly iconic car. Plenty of work has been completed in recent years and that desirable V6 is still burbling away, waiting to show you what it's capable of.
