Renault delivers cheap new Clio



Renault seems to have delivered with its promise to produce a cheap new Clio for 2005.

Available in the UK from October 15th Renault claims that the new Clio will reside in a lower insurance group than its predecessor while offering better value for money.

The three door option will be the first available in the UK and will boast side impact airbags as standard, a feature that would have cost an extra £200 on last year's model.

In a recent statement the French manufacturer highlighted occasions throughout the range where the new Renault Clio III offers improved quality and value.

Expected to be the leading diesel option the 1.5 dCi 86 Expression offers complete restyling and improved power at a price that is only two per cent higher than the outgoing model.

As for the top of the range new Clio Dynamique 1.4 16v the manufacturer claims that it beats both the equivalent new Ford Fiesta Zetec and new VW Polo Sport on price.

With the additional savings that are available to consumers who buy through an online new car sale the Clio III looks like a prudent choice for a cheap new car.

Insurance for the new range should be between group 2E for the entry-level model and group 5E for the 1.6 Dynamique, a drop of four groups compared to the top of the range Clio II. 2006 looks set to be a busy year for the French manufacturer.
