New to Clios

Hi all!
Just thought I'd say hello I'm picking up a 2010 Clio RS200 tomorrow, can't confirm yet if it's a Cup with nice bits or RS with cup chassis lol. It's advertised as a RenaultSport 2.0 VVT with Cup chassis, it has recaros, sat nav, keyless entry, cruise control, auto wipers/lights etc but has CUP badges on the b pillar but it has colour coded door strips and gloss black mirror covers. Very confused as the spec varies so much on the RS!! It has the cup chassis too.
I'm coming from a 2008 Focus ST which is fantastic but need something that blends in a bit more, not bright orange with an exhaust that pops bangs and shoots flames!!
I'm looking forward to enjoying the handling on the Clio as I live in North Wales but travel down to South Wales every month too.
No doubt will have questions to ask in the future too!!!!

From checking the net it appears to be Nimbus grey/silver

Well picked it up today and have to say I'm very impressed. Doesn't have the out and out power and torque my Focus ST had but I have found it much more drivable so far.
Think I've figured out the spec too. Normal RS with sat nav, cup chassis and recaros. Does that make it a Full Fat??

I think it's Nimbus grey/silver. It's darker than normal silver.
Has soft touch dash and painted vent surrounds and centre console, climate control, adjustable steering rake etc, recaros, sat nav, cup suspension and steering, cup rear spoiler.
Love it to be honest, the handling is amazing and having covered about 200 miles on various types of roads, yes it's hard and a bit bouncy but you have to expect that and I don't find it uncomfortable. In fact in more comfortable than my old Focus ST and that was lowered on Eibach's.
It's averaging about 30mpg at the moment but I think the exhaust has a slight leak so that might go up but coming from the ST that's great anyway!!
Didn't think I would love it as much as I do already!!
