Renault Clio 2018
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The Clio RS is still a ton of fun and in Cup spec, probably the best compromise between price and livability. Despite its advancing years (it turns five this year, so ready to start kindy) and big brother Megane hogging the limelight with a fancy new model on the way, the Clio is a stayer. It's missing some frustratingly obvious things like CarPlay, AEB, rear airbags and rear cross-traffic alert, but it's hardly alone in the segment.Â

The 2018 Renault Clio carries a braked towing capacity of up to 900 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Renault Clio is also known as the Renault Lutecia (Japan) in markets outside Australia.

What is the durability and re-sale value of a used car?
In terms of life expectancy and durability I would expect both to be about the same, but I would expect the Polo to have slightly better resale value than the Clio. Both are good cars, but I would choose the Renault because of its longer warranty.
