Clio 182 RB
As the title says, how many people have you surprised with your Clio and it's ability to eat B roads?
I always knew how good they where but until owning one I really couldn't push it to it's limits and fully appreciate it's full glory, my first car was a R5 GTT which I owned for about 10 years, in that ten years the amount of 'big boy cars' I kept up with or left down twisty roads was countless.....regular conversations with my competitors asking what bhp i'm running etc etc to shame them saying it's 180 at the wheels.
the reason I've started this post is my cars been off the road for ages now, I've just got her back to glory and been taking full advantage of her running better than the day I got her, prior to today I thought it was how she run, clearly had more gremlins than I realised......and even with the gremlins prior as minor as they were I made a show of some pretty serious cars on the plethora of county roads I have on my door step.
I have much experience with high HP cars via my job and ownership of some "petrol head" cars but know, Clio RS's are on a level that few cars are at on a corner to corner roads, far from saying I'm as good as a professional racing driver more saying, my Clio is so good it makes me look good & it gives me the confidence of pinning it into corners faster and harder than in some performance cars I've been privileged enough to own or drive before!
So my question is, what is the best car you've taught a lesson with your Clio Rs?2
