Clio Diesels any gen

Sep 13, 2005 2 Replies

Well guys i'm selling or laying the Cavvy up over the winter and i'm about to turn to the dark side once again.


Been offered a mk1 clio 1.9 Diesel and just wondered if anyone could shed some light on this. Parkers were full of information informing me that the clio was indeed availabale with a 1.9D variant and that was about it.



Is it a good lump(similar to the pug maybe?



I presume N/A but even then surely it will be quick in a something as small as a 3 door clio.



Thoughts please guys as always


it is NA, but its also crap and slow, its not a very good diesel engine

Don't bother with a Clio they demand a bit of a premium I find, because little girls like them almost as much as Corsas.

Get something with a decent turbo diesel lump, N/A engines are extremely gutless in most guises. But then again, I wouldn't buy a diesel expecting it to be quick.
