Good effort chap, wouldn't mind seeing them, but for the record i wasn't saying its not possible, its just that the M5 (for example) with its 507bhp will hit 205mph give or take if you remove the limiter, and the M3 CSL only has 350bhp (when compared to the M5), again, give or take, so thats why...
I've just read about 7 of the 11 pages of this thread and i must admit, its been an incredibly funny read; however, can we keep this simple?
The facts:
'309 bhp' Clio 182 vs Standard M3.
Dual carriageway.
1/3 of mile is the total distance of this 'straight line' race - 1st set of lights to...
My fuel light came on, the computer said i had 40 miles left and only used 9.0 gallons of fuel, then if you continue the computer goes blank, so i travelled a further 25 miles, and i was still fine, albeit slightly nervous about running out of fuel, the gallon went to about 9.8, then i filled...
Does this include the R27? I'd have it in white...White looks good with decals and anthracite rims; however if we're taking the normal 197, i'd have deep black...

^^ The clio is surely lighter, however? We're not talking massive differences, but i would expect some...
Upload the vids, wouldn't mind taking a look....

Deffo not the wing mirror for me mate. I do get a whistle from the drivers side mirror, that doesn't really concern me, this loud squeal noise does and that comes from the passenger side windscreen, at the top where the window seal is. Renault re-bonded the windscreen, that didn't sort it, so...
You got that right mate! I can't believe that the Clio R27 is 500 notes more than the Megane R26! Madness!
I know which i'd go for, for the money!
Tys.
^^^ Can you elborate a tad more mate?
Would Renault undestand if i said you have to re-seal the centre light unit?
They're ordering me a new windscreen seal after doing my windscreen bonding yesterday (this didn't stop the squeal btw), so i'm still looking for new solutions!

Cheers for that mate; mine typically depends on how windy it is. Sometimes it happens at 70mph, other times not until 100mph (tested on my Dad's private airfield). Yesterday not until 105mph (again, tested on my Dad's private airfield) but i suppose yesterday was very dry, and calm.
Anyone...
Love it, that would be my next car if you weren't redlining the car in 6th while cruising at 70mph....
Drop the meg lump in it and Renault have a new customer!

Hi all,
I'm running out of idea's, and so is my local pikey Renault dealership. I took one of their engineers out in my car on Saturday because they wouldn't drive my car at 75+ mph in order to hear this 'squealing noise' which comes from the passenger side of my windscreen. So, all went well...
^^ I do agree with that. Manchester is pants when it comes to car insurance, more so Oldham in which my Post code falls! Ali must live in Fort Knox!

Great buy mate! Very jealous!
One thing though, how the hell do you get a quote like that? I can't get close to that on my 182, and i'm 22 with 2 years NCB, clean license, etc!
Life's a b**ch sometimes!
Enjoy though ;)
Tys.
