The RENAULT CLIO (1998-01) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 16V SPORT is a small, three-door petrol hatchback from the late-1990s Clio range. In the UK market it sits firmly in the affordable supermini class: compact and easy to place in town, but more versatile than a tiny city car. Its Sport name gives it a slightly livelier image than basic versions, while remaining an everyday, practical used car. mycarcheck.com recorded 89 look-ups covering 37 different VINs, offering a useful snapshot of interest rather than a full picture of every Clio. Checked cars averaged 81,000 miles and around 2,000 miles a year, with approximately three to four previous keepers. That low annual figure may reflect cars used mainly for short local journeys, though individual history and condition matter more than averages. Best suited to first-time drivers and commuters, it offers an easy-to-manage runabout, with a livelier feel than many Fiesta or Corsa rivals.
