Power = 172 bhp.

Wait = 2 more days until you get it.

That's a power to wait ratio today of 86 bhp/day.

And it keeps rising. At the start of the week it was 172 bhp and there was 7 days to wait for it so the power to wait ratio was 24.57 bhp/day. Tomorrow it'll still be 172 bhp, but the wait will be down to 1 day, so the power to wait ratio will go up to 172 bhp/day.

He's getting a phase 2.


Assuming it's got 172bhp (none of them do though :S ) then it's 156bhp/ton.

Not really surprising as Renault only claimed 172PS (169.9999bhp)

Clio according to Parkers, is 172 and weighs 1035Kg, which is 166 bhp/tonne. Think my owners manual says 1035 too iirc.

That's for the 1st Phase Mark 2 Clios only.
