Funny you should say that but I've been playing about with the data to work this ^^^ out. Hopefully will update thread with revised data/graphs tonight. From what I've seen so far though, it makes a difference...but it's not as huge as most hope it will be.

Got to say my experience across several trackdays comparing against 172s, 182s, Tropy's etc. is that there's nothing to separate my 200 from any of them in a straight line. I don't doubt a MkII would 'launch' quicker and they're definitely a little more nimble through the really tight 2nd gear...

I think the carbon's taking the car in a bad direction. Also, to be pedantic, it's a simple rear bumper trim isn't it? Doesn't look even remotely like a diffuser.

Thread opened with a video, did you watch it?

The mobile telecoms equivalent of a bonnet bra? Nice.

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news The more I see it, the more I think I could love a paddle shift after all.

My laptop's been relegated to being used just for video editing since our ipad arrived. ipad > pretty much any other casual browsing device.

At 105k it'll still be running itself in!

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news I'm not a fan of mine at all...sure it feels nice day to day, but I really think I'd feel more in touch with the car on track with one a little thinner.

Even £2k for that is a bit rich IMO!

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Some of us have changed settings so we see 60 posts per page...so when you do this, we see your repeated post two or three times on the same page. Please stop doing it.

Is it nearly empty? As standard, once you get below 40 miles or so left, you'll just see '----'.

My point is that here's something that should be in an Apple product. It could be in an Apple product. But it's not because of the financial revenues it generates for Apple from the apparent blindness of its customers who come up with every reason under the sun why it's been excluded other...

Apologies, thought your previous post was sarcasm through and through! Let's say 90% (?) of rival handsets out there have expandable memory...that doesn't stop the entire populous owning them and coping with having a slot in their phone (be it used or unused) does it?

You surprise me with that response. You really genuinely think with all their technical expertise, experience, and knowhow, that to engineer that into one of their handsets a Micro SD slot is too much for them? Seriously?

This one snippet I can't shake...why can't they engineer a Micro SD slot into a handset? Because it would deny them huge revenues from individuals who seem to think that £70 for 16gb or £170 for 48gb of memory is a good thing?

So the below personal opinion about the 'worth' of the upgrade is bizarre and invalid? I think you confuse opinion with facts - yes the 5 is better than the 4S, of course it is. Is it worth it? Yes and no. Depends on each and every individual.

Oh right, it must have been then.

Yup, accountant by trade. Boring life? Nope. A simple Android app...10 seconds after each fill up is what it takes to enter mileage, litres, cost. That's it. Then the figures find their way into a spreadsheet which does all of the above. Any ad hoc costs get entered also...takes 10 seconds each...

That S3 ad was an attack on Apple was it? You must have watched something different then because I didn't see that. I saw a light hearted poke at the fanaticism that exists around the build up and hype of a new Apple product. It did not attack Apple. It did not attack the iPhone 5. It...

Increased miles have seen the average monthly cost and pence per mile reduce, but there's no getting away from the painful cost of fuel and depreciation. Depreciation has continued at £5/day...valuing it today at £8,490...which is fair I think. The recent day at Llandow came and went without...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news We don't know the weight reduction over a NA 200 yet, but it's going to end up not far off of how much the original Ph2 172 weighed. They cope just fine with single piston calipers. Being under 17 inch rims allows for a much greater disc diameter and swept...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news OK, Brembos too, but since when have Renaultsport released a car with crap brakes? Don't think they'd drop the ball on this one. Until anyone gets in one, it's all wild speculation and toys out of pram from a lot on here. I bet it stops just as well as any...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news EFA

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Really? I'd have thought the reason for the bolt on arches on the Megane was that, like with this new Clio, they couldn't justify the expense of tooling up for a bespoke body which will sell in very low volumes, so they bolted a body kit onto it instead.

My 200, registered July 2009, MOT expires July 13, VED expires 30th November. Standard non-Cup model so full climate, keyless entry etc. without any options fitted except for rear parking sensors. FSH, maintained regardless of cost (both front ball joints replaced for recent MOT at cost of...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news So if they'd bolted on arches like on the Meganes people would have been happier? People need to accept that niche low volume cars from the likes of Renault won't happen anymore, from a business perspective, to have a 3 door flared arch body just for low...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Agreed. That's nice. Looks like a 4x4 though?

LOL Oops springs to mind.
