Yo!!! I have no idea who you are in real life, I was probably running around in a jumper stressing out over the car. You were one of the people I wanted to try and find!

I don't know about over, but you spent a lot of time stressing under the car.

Also not sure who was peddling the petrol blue round (possibly @MLB ?) but really enjoyed trying to keep up for the few laps I was behind, you were rapid! I know we swapped places a couple of times towards the end, sorry if I was getting in the way!

Ah that was you! Was definitely a good couple of laps, had to work the car hard to keep up with you!

There was a moment you walked out the garage and had clearly had enough of my s**t, I can't remember who I turned to (possibly @RustyMojo) and just said "who's going to tell Rob his cars spent longer on the ramps than the track"

I want you to know karma will bite me for this. Very hard.

It already has because you've got nae hair

The car went surprisingly well on track Steve, thanks for being my only ride of the day. And for taking me out on track👍. The more experience I have of the mk4 RS the more puzzling it is that they were slated so badly by the press when launched. Shame you're selling it but plenty of other cars to try I suppose.

Grabbed my own selection of images, thanks to TurboRenault for arranging photography, these are ace!

you were flying out there, went very well.

Im just starting to get used to the mk4 platform on track and absolutely loving it, CSF was the first time ive tried it with all the aids turned off

End thread, the Clio went yesterday.

It's been a great 3 years, never let me down reliability-wise and I still got a rush of excitement whenever I had the opportunity to let loose.

The car was outstanding on track, I like to be an advocate for the MK4 RS as it's underappreciated in my opinion. Just an easy car to mope around in day to day and a flick of the stick has you in manual race mode and you can really give it some stick, it's a lot of fun.

As time went on I started to crave some better modern comforts, less rattles/creaks (a commonality unfortunately) more space overall especially with two young kids, and generally just a change of scenery as I've only ever owned small hatchbacks in all of my time driving.

I picked this up yesterday, 2017 A4 Allroad 2.0 TFSI Quattro (250bhp). It's S-Tronic 7-speed and, although I've only driven it home from the dealers so far, I'm very impressed, and clearly so are the boys!

That'll be a right laugh on track at csf next year 👍.
