SUMMARY
One of the very last Phase One Clio Williams with only 48,770 miles, low-ownership and an impressive service history.
DESCRIPTION
Presented here is exactly the Renault Clio Williams that any enthusiast or collector would want to seriously think about owning. When the first owner had it in his garage for over 25 years and his address begins with 'The Vicarage', you know you are onto something. Supplied to him new by Renault Dealer, Bridge Valley Motors of Dorchester, in January 1994, it has a comprehensive service history and every MOT to corroborate the mileage of only 48,770. It still sports its original Renault dealer number plates, original Renault Owners Card, original stereo, handbooks, Williams F1 brochure and original parcel shelf carrying case.
It was serviced by the Renault Dealer, Bridge Motors, all the way through to 2000 and then by Frodsham Motors, the Renault Dealer in Bridport. From 2007 C&A Rawlings, a family business, serviced it until 2018 and it was then sold to its second owner in 2019. Throughout this time, in addition to normal servicing, the wheel bearings, discs and belts have been changed (Cam Belt 2014 – 43,563 miles).
In 2019, and with a mileage of 47,452, Safwat Cars serviced the Clio and replaced various seals and repaired the radio. ASM Classics of Sevenoaks in 2020 replaced the clutch and shock absorbers and conducted a full service. It had an exhaust in 2021, another service in 2022 and additional work right up to March 2023.
With such a prefect timeline, just two previous owners, a full MOT pack and service history from day one, and all the essential original features, this cossetted little Clio is very much of the right stuff for its next discerning owner.
