Purchase advice Renault Clio from year 98 and max. 4000€

Buying advice Renault Clio B from year 98 for max. 4000€ Hello forum, I would like to buy a small car for my wife. I want to spend a maximum of 4000€ and the car should have as far as possible less than 80Tkm on the clock. But as with women, it should also have the “nutty factor”. And thus also a Clio (model B) is possible. Now you come into play. I would be happy if you would give me tips on buying a Clio. For example: – which engine is available, How long does such an engine last? – Would a diesel even expect (at 15Tkm year)? or would it be recommended? – what are the weaknesses of the Clio? – what does it look like with rust? – how reliable and durable is a Clio? Also in comparison with its competitors. – what do you say subjectively for processing. I am also grateful for any other opinion. At the moment I am also thinking about whether it might be a VWPolo, Opel Corsa B, Ford Fiesta, Peugeot 206, Mitsubishi Colt, Honda Civic or Mazda 323. What do you think? How would the small Renault beat itself compared to the others?
