i posted this a while back.

yes, they are still made in Dieppe.

Superleggeras and coilovers are dealer-fit options.

Must be a rare sight in Japan!

^^from the website, i can gather all their RS come as non-cupped models.

i dont see anthracite alloys.

 

[Martin_172]

seems they just get 172s and not 182s

The steering wheel is on the left, so it cant be a japanese car - plus that writing looks chinese not japanese.

it is on a japanese website though

All Clios have been called Lutecia in Japan. Even Mk1 Clios were available and you do see the odd Williams and 16v come up for sale over there.

You also see very low mileage Gt Turbos as well as all the other mundane Renault stuff.
