I reckon its a Group N rally prepared track car for the road. And what a bloody good idea it was too.

LOL!

Does make me laugh!

Its a road car developed for the road ! (as said above)

anyone who thinks any different is deluding themselves!

 

[Paul_P1]

I thought part of the blurb when it first came out was that you could buy it and prepare it for Group N rallying?

 

[KDF]

Ye, they also said you could buy seats, rollcages from them etc..

 

[James20VT]

neither as already said. does it have Rally or any type or name too go with a rally car, no it has a feking cup! the best name a renault designer could come up with while drinking his feking coffee. i know well rip the air con out and ABS and other stuff which rally cars dont have and other track cars and sell it for around the same price as the standard 172! money saved! genius!

Tom.

youre in your silly mood again...

do you want me to help you out of it?

[Paul_P1]

Jean Ragnotti anyone? Id say it was presented to begin with as a rally specialist!

 

[KDF]

As this is just turning into an all out sl*gging of Cups its getting locked.

 

[y0z2a]

If renault Europe put the name Jean Ragnotti to it, it would suggest that they were trying to sell it as a tarmac rally equivalent.

In the UK the Clio Cup has been a breeding ground for touring car & race drivers for about 10 years.

Europe = rally audience
UK = Tracks, as we dont have any real tarmac rallies?

ITS MARKETING SPLURGE.

get over it!
