Selling your Renault Clio

The Clio is a common small car in the Netherlands, from fifteen year old petrol hatchbacks to recent hybrids. We make offers across that whole range.

The Renault Clio on the Dutch market

Three generations make up most of the used Clios here: the Clio III (2005 to 2012), the Clio IV (2012 to 2019) and the Clio V (from 2019). The Clio III and IV were also sold as an estate. Since 2020 there is a full hybrid version, the E-Tech.

Many Clios spend their life on short journeys in and around town. That matters most for diesels, the 1.5 dCi, because short trips are harder on a diesel engine and its particulate filter than motorway driving.

What moves the value

No price estimates here, because a number published today is wrong by next month. This is what we actually look at.

Petrol, diesel or hybrid

Petrol Clios, such as the 0.9 TCe three cylinder, are the most common. For a diesel, tell us whether it mostly did short trips or long runs. For an E-Tech hybrid, tell us about any warning messages from the hybrid system.

EDC automatic

The automatic in many Clios is the EDC, a dual clutch gearbox. Tell us how it behaves when pulling away and whether it has been serviced.

Electrical faults

If something electrical works only some of the time, such as a window, a sensor or the touchscreen, mention it. It rarely changes the offer much.

Service history

A Clio with stamps and invoices is straightforward to value. Without them we rely more on the condition and the mileage.

Worth mentioning in your request

Your plate gives us the basics. These are the things only you can tell us.

  1. Whether it is petrol, diesel or hybrid
  2. Whether it mostly did short trips or longer runs
  3. Any electrical fault, even one that comes and goes
  4. Whether you have the service book and the second key card or key

Questions about selling a Renault Clio

Do you buy the Clio E-Tech hybrid?

Yes. Tell us the mileage, whether the hybrid system has shown any warnings, and whether the car has been serviced at a dealer.

My Clio has a key card and I only have one. Is that a problem?

No, but tell us. A missing second key card lowers the offer a little, because the next owner will want one.

What do I need to ask for an offer?

Your number plate (kenteken) and the mileage. We look up the make, model, year and fuel in the Dutch vehicle register. You do not need any paperwork until the handover.

Do you buy cars with damage or high mileage?

We do. Tell us about the damage or the mileage and we take it into account in the offer.
