Just back from a very pleasant, if a little chilly, week in the Algarve.
I shopped around and managed to book a 'Punto or equivalent' with aircon..... a whole 75 quid / week incl. CDW. Nice.
Even better was what they handed to me when I arrived - a brand spanking new (550 kms old) new shape Clio.
No idea what spec. it was, but it appeared to be a 1.2.
Anyway - first impressions were good - nice styling, decently designed interior, although some of the materials were a bit cheap. Lots of toys
- aircon, fuel computer with loads of geeky functions, leccy windows. Nice chunky steering wheel.
Driving - handles well, very little roll for a small French car, but the
1.2 engine was course and gutless.
In summary - nice car, but needs a proper sized engine.
Pics to follow when I can be arsed. Probably tomorrow.
