wots ur best experience in a clio?
Got to be when i took the Cup on a test drive and fighting with the torque steer. Didnt loose my virginity or anything intresting like that in a clio.
Well its hard to say really, when i first drove my clio i was all "f**king yes i have my own car!" so that was a good moment but i had a great drive in 172 at brands last August. It was lapping faster than my old mk1 Golf and it was just a lot more fun than i thought it would be, the steering was neutral, progressive, it was predictable yet entertaining. Throttle adjustability is spot on too, oh and mid range surge was impresssive. I could go on but basically i enjoyed it a lot!
The day after I got mine lowered and had the new wheels and tyres fitted I was testing my new found handling ability. I went round a left handed going way to fast, the front right bottomed out and I ended up going sideways across the road and somehow got it together after going onto the soft verge on the other side.. Serious brown trouser moment when you realise it could have gone very tits up!!!
Still, you gotta find out where the limit is!

Having just bought the Willie and was thinking this is as fast as I thought it would be, having owned similar cars - then putting my foot down to the top of the revs for the first 3 gears and thinking this is miles quicker than I thought it would be - Nice
Either my last cars were slower than they should have been or this is quicker - I think its getting RRd in April.fred, your female friend was a bit of a "go-er" eh
the clio aint the most spacious in the back is it
Id say the best moment "related" to my car was when someone came into my work(halfords) and asked "who owns that lovely clio outside"...hehe i smiled all day
the worst would defo by my sliding into wa all experience.

best moment in a clio ............ now thats a hard 1 lol
its gotta be driving thru a 30 mph zone at 115+ with me mrs sat at the side of me diggin her nails into my hand and my mate askin me where i was goin in such a hurry on the fone with the other hand and a fukkin mini roundabout comin up quik
my son was born about 20 mins later hehe

Clio 172 cup
Best moment....
christening the drivers seat with the girlfriend and then her getting her foot stuck in my momo steering wheel!! he he!!
no seriously, getting pulled doing 103mph on Ripon bypass by a local copper, and he let me off because my dad lets him shoot rabbits on our fields!!!
When I took my car for a test drive and the salesman suddenly went quiet. It was a clear road, dry and with new tyres but i dont reckon he was used to any speed above 50 mph (it was funny!).
