The RENAULT CLIO (2009-12) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 VVT 128 EU5 GORDINI 6SPD is a sporty, three-door supermini: compact enough for town driving and parking, yet more powerful and distinctive than an everyday entry-level Clio. In the UK used-car market, it sits between practical small hatchbacks and warm, style-led alternatives. Mycarcheck.com records 79 checks across 32 different VINs, offering a useful, though still modest, snapshot. Checked examples average £2,200 in private-sale valuation and 89,000 miles, with about 4,000 miles added annually. The average keeper count is 3.7, so buyers should review each car’s history and condition rather than assume every example has had the same use. Gordini styling gives this Clio more character than many small UK hatchback rivals, and its six-speed manual makes it enjoyable on open roads as well as around town. It suits drivers seeking a manageable, lively car, though the three-door layout is less handy for frequent rear-seat passengers.
