This Renault Clio RS ‘Ange & Demon’ is a particularly well-maintained example of the lively limited-edition hot hatch, offered with a comprehensive maintenance history. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 2.0-litre inline-four, delivering around 147kW to the front wheels via a close-ratio six-speed manual transmission. The odometer shows 112,016 Km from new. This Clio RS ‘Ange & Demon’ is number 448 of just 666 examples produced worldwide, and is understood to be one of only 40 which have made their way to Australia – only 20 of which were finished in this colour. It has been with the seller and fourth owner for one year. The limited-edition ‘Ange & Demon’ Clio RS was released for St. Valentine’s Day 2012, and featured lightweight 18-inch alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, Recaro Sportster bucket seats, a Renault Sport Monitor, a sports steering wheel with white stitching, and a numbered plaque. The car is also equipped with the Cup Chassis and the F1 style blade in the front bumper. This example is finished in the intriguing hue of Gris Hologramme with a gloss black roof, door mirror caps, and trim elements. Inside, the cabin features black leather upholstery with perforated seat inserts, as well as silver and triangle-patterned trim accents. It rides on the correct set of 18-inch Interlagos alloy wheels finished in gloss black, framing red brake callipers, and shod in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres. The factory specification includes a multifunctional steering wheel, cruise control with speed limiter, electrically adjustable door mirrors, an aluminium gear knob, automatic air conditioning, a built-in CD stereo, Bluetooth connectivity, push-button start, a digital clock, outside temperature sensor, and electric windows. Other than a mild resonator installed by the previous owner, the car remains unmodified. The car will be accompanied by a jack, tools, all the owner’s manuals with a black fabric wallet, two key cards, the fully stamped service booklet, and a detailed written service history. As there were some minor paint scratches and blemishes on the roof, this was fully resprayed in September 2022, along with the upper tailgate and spoiler. Today, the Gris Hologramme paintwork is reported to be in good overall condition, though the seller notes touched-up scratches on the rear bumper, a small crease on the rear bumper, and a small dent on the driver’s door under the handle. There are also some minor scuffs on the bottom edge of the front lip spoiler. Moving inside, the cabin is presented in good overall shape, and new genuine floor mats, a cargo mat, and a replacement rear-view mirror have been fitted. The seller notes minor wear on the driver’s seat base and bolsters. There is also deterioration on the left-hand stereo control, mild creasing on the front passenger seat, wear on the steering wheel’s red 12 o’clock marker, and a few other minor blemishes and scuffs around the trim. The seller is not aware of any mechanical or electrical faults, and they state that there are no warning lights showing on the dashboard. This Clio RS’ most recent maintenance was carried out in October 2022 at 109,945 Kms by Renault specialist AP Automotive Carlton, which consisted of the fitment of new, genuine Renault Cup suspension components. Prior to this, an annual service was performed in May 2022 at 103,772 Kms by A.P. Automotive Engineering Services, which included an engine oil, oil filter, and spark plug change. The timing belt and ancillary belt were replaced in November 2021, when the throttle body was also cleaned. In September 2022, Cawarra Smash Repairs repaired the roof and front bumper insert before respraying them, along with the upper tailgate and the tailgate spoiler. 18 Jul 2013, 9,116 Kms at Sydney Motor Group 1 Oct 2014, 22,668 Kms at Sydney Motor Group 21 May 2015, 30,015 Kms at Sydney Motor Group 26 Aug 2016, 39,728 Kms at Alto BMW Atarmon 8 Dec 2016, 45,884 Kms at Reno Tech 17 Nov 2017, 53,980 Kms at A.P.
