4 car cup review

[james-dean]

just read the 4 car review on the clio cup i like this bit

And few are as hot as the Cup. Its the quickest four seater you can buy for less than twenty grand, with 0-62 in 6.8secs and a top-whack of 138mph. That 172bhp means torque steer, even in third gear if youre brutal.

that review is very old (over 2 years), and therefore is outdated, everyone knows the 182 is now the fastest sub 20 k car now

I dont agree with it either, the reviewer says youll never hit the rev limiter, i used to do so in first and second quite a bit, could have done with about 500rpm more i reckon.

 

[182_blue]

there still fast chap, i had one, but i must say my 182 feels quicker imho
