that looks really good imo

the dials look crap though (defenitly the rev counter), steering wheel looks cool, looks a lot better than the MK2. Just hope its a lot quicker than the 182 !

the interior looks nothing like the production verison and it will be the same speed as the 182.

how do u know that mate have u got stats on the production model??

 

[cat171]

Really?

Thats a interesting assumption and the dash looks exactly like the production version to me? am i missing something?

 

[blink172]

200bhp ish, but the extra weight of the car (200kg odd) means it will stay about the same speed as a 182.

Gains a 6spd box



Is this going to take 4 or 5 revisions like the current clio to find the perfect balance?

210nm ish

cool

 

[blink172]

compared to the 200nm on the 182, whats the mean in the real world? is 10nm extra a massive difference?

 

[McBunny]

still 100nm behind me

 

[McBunny]

oh and only 65kg lighter than the fabia too

 

[chris-b]

why has it got a sunroof???? No climate? or is it an audi open sky type thingy?

 

[JayGTT]

i like it! i will have to test drive it first to see how well it handles and goes.

Im sure it wont be disappointing in these departmarts.

Rumour has it most things on the new car will be optional. Things like Climate, Xenons, leather & 1/2 leather & Alcantara would probably fall into that bracket.

Exactly as i expected.

Slightly wilder than usual, but follows the modus concept/modus transition.

Are we still going to frankfurt to have a look munchkin, via the ring of course?? No way my company car mileage is gonna hit 135,000 ks so I can hang on for it, and get the first one out of the showroom, if we like it.

So is it only available in red?

The air intakes direct mud onto the doors for increased purchasing of car wash products

cue the Group buy, only 40 quid for something an old pair of boxers can do threads.

[Tom]

Yeah id better! will talk to you tonight!

 

[miketheman2k]

Clio Renaultsport Concept features an underfloor air

diffuser, an aerodynamic device straight from F1.

^^^ It obviously came from F1 so quickly they didnt get a chance to paint it.

 

[entjm]

i think that looks really nice, AND after the 182 their next model wont be crap. surely?

i think that as they know their biggest market for the hot clios is the uk they;ll have it all set up for our roads and take onboard all the things they learned from the trophy. i mean things have to go forward or there would be no point.



perhaps thats optimistic. its what theyll be aiming for.... and if its crap 1st time round they cna always release a trophy version.



any information about cup packs/full fat versions etc?

[Jay]

pedals come in kids sizes too!

 

[Rick]

Im not keen on that. Could do to be wider. Having said that, Id still like to see one in the flesh to decide for sure.
