MODEL TESTED: Renault Clio TCe 90 Iconic

PRICE: £18,290 ENGINE: 1.0-litre 3cyl, 89bhp

OUR two-time Supermini of the Year has had a couple of minor spec tweaks to its engine since we last tried it, but prices still remain competitive. This Iconic model, the most basic in the Clio’s three-strong trim structure, is still generously equipped and starts from £18,290. Throw in the eye-catching Valencia Orange paint (£700) and a spare wheel (£300) and the total comes to £19,290.
