[rock]

just saw this on wheels24.co.za, looks too much like the new megane, which I do like, but prefer the clios style.

That pic is not how its gonna look.

Its the wrong front to be a megane isnt it!?!?!

Dont think Ill be upgrading to that model....its lost its va va voom and joined the rest of the boring clones, it would have to be pretty impressive to drive to make up for its looks ...the headlights are not to bad tho

Clio to take on cute Peugeot 206cc

Different?


but the Clio 2004 will be interesting !
"A powerful 2-litre unit will also be available and Renault will of course again develop a muscle V6".

Did somone like me not mention a v6 MK 3 ?

( or is this story a load of rubbish? )

 

[pete_pete]

Yes an insider from reno said theres a V6 turbo version as well.

 

[Charlie]

they are MINGING!!!! why do designers these days have so little taste???? i could draw something more sexy with a piece of charcoal.

 

[Jeremy Townsend]

V6 turbo ? No, sorry.

 

[Dash]

OK maybe not a turbo the articile doesnt mention a turbo. It does say there will be a new muscle v6 though? Will this be the MK 3? and how much improvement over the "Now Perfect Mk2 " will there be?

 

[Jeremy Townsend]

No plans for a replacement for the V6

 

[Chad]

WTF



"The Clio will share its underpinnings with the Nissan Micra"

since when??

 

[Dash]

To quote from Renault/Nissan website

"- maintain the separate identities and independence of the two groups, which will continue to be responsible for their own operating activities."

I guess "operating activities" is different to "underpinnings" ?
