Nice build (apart from the awful skirts and splitter), but I'm not sure a 550bhp Clio appeals a lot to me. Doesn't really seem in keeping with what they're all about somehow.

They're genuine RenaultSport items you big wet lettuce

197s look pony without them

I know they are, but that doesn't make them look any better. They totally spoil the balance of the car because the side skirts end up sitting lower than the front bumper.

Not sure if you can see but the standard skirts are lower than the front bumper. Even with the standard rubber lip they're lower

 

[Mr Squashie]

I'd be interested to know how level 12 on the traction control completely prevents wheelspin. Presumably it just turns the engine off when you press the accelerator, and politely asks you to get out of the car.

 

[Beauvais Motorsport]

0-60 slower than standard

They are, but this makes it looks 1000x more obvious. Each to their own ultimately, but they look gash in my view. And not in a fresh 18-year old college chick way. In a chunky, fifty-year old growler way.

I admire the effort which must have gone into it, but it's pure insanity. £22.5k for something where the fun is at least partially in the journey of building the thing. I do get the lure of having one of the most powerful cars of it's type but bloody hell.

 

[NorthloopCup]

Cheap car for the work that’s gone into it

Maybe he just wanted to enter an event with @RuskiWeldFab and blow the poor guys mind with how such a stock looking car is so insanely fast.

 

[Jamess182]

£22k and no sequential? Shame

 

[NorthloopCup]

£22k and no sequential? Shame

I’ve messaged him offering £5000 and my last rolo. That alone is worth £17500.

 

[frayz]

As useful as an underwater hairdryer. Cheap for the bits but f**king useless.

Never getting 22k for that. 15 imo.

If I had put 15k into this engine I would be proper gutted thinking that the 350 BHP figure us a bit optimistic 🤣

(Ignore the knob in the Megane thou)

 

[leeds2592]

It's all noise

 

[Krarl]

350bhp on Ktec rollers

It's weird because you can safely make about 300bhp on a standard 197 engine without f**king about

Excellent reference. I absolutely cannot wait for the movie to come out in the summer!!

This is the sort of thing I’d buy after my wife tells me to get something better for going to the shops.
