BenS_172 · Feb 5, 2004

If its just Clio the I guess theres plenty of ILL management systems to rival.

206

Dash · Feb 5, 2004

Thrust ? Pifff ! Wouldnt stand a chance.

Tom · Feb 5, 2004

Do you mind?

Keep on topic

(lol @ jon_r btw)

Lagerlout · Feb 5, 2004

Out of interest, is the Clio classed as a supermini?? Are we talking rivals in terms of performance?? Or just cars in the same class? (whatever that might be!)

*edit* oops just read the first post again.. so..

Punto

Fabia

Corsa

Mini

Tom · Feb 5, 2004

Clio rivals. simple as that.

A generic clio.

Yes a clio is a supermini.

Paul Clio 16v · Feb 5, 2004

I put clios in the same size/class as fiesta/206s as apposed to saxos/106s though.

specialK · Feb 5, 2004

206 must be closest imo

Weeman · Feb 5, 2004

Closest to the cup must be the Punto Sporting (1.2)

ChavyBoy · Feb 5, 2004

Fabia

206

Hocus Pocus Focus

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

What joker compared the cup to Punto Sporting? Get Real! Its a tad smaller than the Stilo size wise for starters!

The clio is in the same class "generically" as civics, saxos, 206s, the focus, corsas etc.

Each manufacturer has a car for the class. And theyre hatch backs, not superminis dammit!

word_easy · Feb 5, 2004

No the Focus is in the same class as a Megane

Note the winking face, that generally means someones taking the p1ss.

toms_cup · Feb 5, 2004

or you have somehting in your eye

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

Sorry Dutch, you rattled my cage for a second.

I know how laughable the Punto sporting is, Ive beaten them in my 1.4RT! At least when it had its M.I.A K&N induction kit fitted!

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

The focus is a hatchack. The Megane is a compact saloon. Theyre not really developed for the same market, like the focus and the clio are.

Fords equivalent to the Megane would be the lower end Puma if anything.

Tom · Feb 5, 2004

kenbot, im sorry mate not saying your wrong or anything but care to explain that last post?

jon_r · Feb 5, 2004

Ladies, the Clio is a supermini, end of!

The Megane, Focus, Golf, Stilo are not!!!!!

Dash · Feb 5, 2004

Tom, its easy mate.

The Focus hatch is a hatch. The Megane hatch is a hatch. The Focus saloon is a saloon. The Megane saloon is a saloon. The Focus saloon is not a hatch, and the Megane saloon is not a hatch.

The Puma is has a totally different market.

Have you noticed just how many hairdressing salons there are everywhere.

btw the salon is not a hatch. The hatch is a style you can have in a salon.

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

OK the Puma Megane thing was a bit off. But the focus and megane are not intended for the same market so cant rival each other!

And saying a Clio is a supermini? The Twingo is renaults supermini, rivaling the Yaris, Matiz, Lupo etc.

Oh right thanks for clearing that up.

But im afraid your wrong.

The twingo is in the city car segment. (along with the lupo, arosa, matiz, 107, c2, aglia etc..)

And the focus and megane are direct competitors.

word_easy · Feb 5, 2004

Megane, Focus, Astra, 307. - all medium sized family cars.

Clio, Fiesta, Corsa, 206. - all super minis!

Ive never seen a Megane Saloon (not the new style anyway). They are all hatches that shake their ass!

word_easy · Feb 5, 2004

The Twingo is a city car, as stated on the Renault website. Just like a Lupo is.

Id much rather have the Lupo, Twingos are proper minging!lol

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

Word! You are still confusing HATCH BACK and SUPERMINI.

Back me up someone?!?

They are called "mailto:SUPERMINI@S">SUPERMINIS" because they are smaller than "HATCHBACKS"!

Tom · Feb 5, 2004

twingo is a fantastic car. massively clever monospace design.

the daddy of citycars, esp when equipped with the 1.2 16v.

Ps: Nope im not confused.

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

Supermini & Citycar = same thing

No, they arent.

Two very diffrent sectors, which price wise can crossover at points.

But they arent the same at all.

Kenbot · Feb 5, 2004

Someone hit me with these differences then. Im Intrigued!?!
