Renault launches Clio Renaultsport 197 LUX

18th November 2008

Renault has launched a new Clio Renaultsport 197 LUX that the manufacturers claim has "all the thrills and driving pleasure of the 197, but with added comfort and refinement".

There are a number of extra features that motorists can take advantage of if they decide to buy the latest Lux.

Leather upholstery comes as standard, as does automatic climate control to keep driver and passengers at the right temperature whether it's hot or cold outside.

The additional features are worth £2,000 as individual options, yet at £16,995 the latest Lux is just £1,000 more than the standard model.

Customers will also be able to enjoy automatic headlamps, automatic wipers, cornering lights, extra tinted rear windows, a 60W radio MP3 CD player, Renaultsport carpet mats and a satin chrome finish to the fascia air vents.

The new Lux will also be distinguishable from the outside as it will come with aluminum "Raider" alloy wheels. There will also be a satin chrome finish to the door mirrors and the air extraction grilles.

Anyone thinking of buying the latest model will need to ensure they get different car insurance quotes to get the best deal.
