Just to clarify that i only disagree with a 1*2 keeping with the Mountune kitted St
That's fair enough, but that was the point I was trying to make in the first place... That the Clio will be similar in pace down a back road to the st that he had.
The extra 25hp or whatever it is makes next to no difference down a slippery b-road.
I agree with the 'my Clio was faster than this...' comments being annoying. But in this case, that was what the op was asking, how would the Clio compare to an st, so I told him.
Anyway. It doesn't matter.
