Hello Holly,
its all the usual clio 182 issues, belts etc. These you are better reading up on cliosport.net.
Add to that the condition of the recaros and do they tilt? Some have had the interior cards and rear seat swapped for clio 182 interior. That's not a problem but it depends if you want an original looking car or not.
V6 spolier. Should still be on the car. I haven't seen many that have not been.
Then the biggy...the sachs froth and (rear.) Are they still on the car? Are the knackered or not? Do they have any history of refurb.
If they need a basic fix its min £200ish PER shock but that number can rise quickly if they need other bits or you want to have them painted.
if there missing then it's min £250 for a knackered second hand set which will then need the above repairs.
new it's £1800 per shock from renault.
You can fit while your sorting the car out 182 cup shocks at £33 each new.
the rears are less important and hopefully available at some point in the future. There are tonnes of non Sachs options.
Baisically make sure you want a trophy and make sure you pay the right money for the car depending on the usual 182 belt costs and the sachs costs.
if you don't have your eyes wide open as to the Sachs condition, cost and running cost or if your not fussed about having Sachs. Then your better of buying a mint 182 for less money than a cheap trophy. Then fitting recaros and a v6 spoiler for probably less cash.
good luck with your hunting.
