The Bolesworth Castle March 2024 Classic & Performance Car Auction
2006 Renault Clio Sport Trophy 182
Registration – CU06 WBW
Chassis No. – VF1CB220F34325655
M.O.T. – January 2025
Odometer – 106,168
Clean and tidy examples of near-20 year old hot hatches are rare to find, yet here one is. RenaultSport’s Clio Sport Trophy 182 has gone down as one of the finest-handling cars of its time, and this pristine example has been cared for throughout its life. Presented in Capsicum Red with black interior and silver detailing, the RenaultSport Clio is powered by a fizzy 2.0-litre straight-four engine, hooked up to a snappy five-speed manual gearbox, and this example has had ‘no expense spared’ in its upkeep. Undersealed, and with no signs of corrosion, recent work includes new drilled and grooved performance brake disks all round. Those sit behind alloys that are free from chips and kerbing, currently wearing winter tyres. ‘CU06 WBW’ also comes with a full set of spare Cup shock absorbers, and is fitted with rebuilt and refurbished front shocks. With an indicated 106,000 miles on the odometer, ‘CU06 WBW’ comes with a full service history and comprehensive folder of receipts.
The RenaultSport Clio 182 Trophy was the generation’s swansong, and made for the UK market – though a handful were made in left-hand drive for the Swiss. The other 500 came to these shores, and were based on the Clio Cup of the time. Keeping the fine RenaultSport-fettled chassis and 182bhp engine, the Clio’s Recaros were mounted a centimetre lower, a Clio V6 spoiler added, and a set of Speedline alloys fitted to each corner. But it was the Sachs racing dampers that really changed things, and unleashed the Clio’s true potential as a hot-hatch par excellence.
In Summary:
· Stunning example of one of the best hot-hatchbacks of all time.
· Beautifully cared for RenaultSport Clio 182 Trophy
· Rare opportunity to own one of just 500 models brought to the UK
