I used to own this car around 8 months ago but sold it as I just fancied a change but have always missed it since I sold it. The car is a S1 Rallye with 1.6 16V engine from a 106 gti.
I kept in touch with the lad who owned it and we came to a bit of a deal with my Golf and I now have it back...
My 197 was decatted and sounded mint but do not under estimate the decat issue mate. It ruined the drive on mine and IMO you would need to get it remapped.

Yeah, I went the other week to nandos and there were loads of chavs in the corner of the car park with loud exhausts............
I hope that Renault don't lose sight of what makes clios stand out from most other hot hatches and that's the handling and the way it drives.
Manufacturers all seem to be obsessed with bhp but not how a car feels to drive.
I'm sure if the Clio goes down the boost route there will be a few more 'ive blown my Clio up' threads.
If you go on vxr online there are loads of failures due to people going too far with da boost.
Tbh, I think 200bhp is enough in a fwd hot hatch.
