Got to be one of the most economical cars available
Bought this car from auction in September 2015 with 82,000 miles for £520 have covered 32,000+ miles in the last 12 months. Has been used for weekly commute of 715 miles between Wrexham (N.Wales) and Oban (Argyll, Scotland) and averages 72.6 mpg. This is the most economical car I have ever owned and will be replacing it with exactly the same model when this one dies. Cheap car tax £20, but insurance is twice the amount of 1.2 petrol clio owned previously (Covered 40,000+ miles) to this 80 bop model. Both Clio have been really reliable, other than for tyres have spent about £300 on parts and repairs. Also these cars are really comfortable for long journeys. Can easily cover the 715 mile commute on one tank of fuel £50.
