[Flat Eric]

They were on a wierd PB photographed in the dieppe factory iirc. It was a ph2 but had what looked like a ph1 exclusive interior. They look like 133 alloys!

 

[Flat Eric]

Ye they do look like 133 alloys. They look nice to be honest.

Very very similar to Mille miglia HT3's

Altering the OP's link slightly i found this:

Nice interior.

Picture 8 shows all the Clios, whatever colour with Turinis

 

[PP200t]

^^??

 

[Saner]

Change the 5 in the opening link to an 8. All the clios have Turinis, they were only on Cups in the UK so i'm guessing they are all for different markets

 

[lemonnobby]

pic 10 is good

 

[Knuckles]

Post pics of the different colours in turinis? Can't alter the link on my iPhone

 

[ch!ppen]

For Knuckles

A few more:

This makes for an interesting mosey, I noticed pretty much all of them are LHD#
Also pic 7 seems to suggest the turinis are 15 inch!

Someone needs to arrange a Dieppe visit at somepoint

 

[Knuckles]

Isn't there a write up on the dieppe factory on the homepage? I recognise those pics.

They all look great on turinis

 

[ch!ppen]

^I think you're right. I didn't pick up on them being 15s

 

[Saner]

There was also that pick of a ph2 clio with a Megane like front end taken at Dieppe, get they impression they are always trying stuff out.

 

[Knuckles]

Is that the yellow one?

 

[Saner]

Thats the one, taken a good few years ago but looked great!

 

[Knuckles]

If anyone can find that can they post it, looked really funky ha

It looked more like a laguna bumper didn't it, it was thinner than the meganes

 

[jack_davey]

I didn't think that was Dieppe, it looked like some sort of salvage yard. There was also a metallic red mk2 clio in the same location with something unusuall (can't remember what).

Notice the arches and 5 stud :S

 

[danzel]

This the one?

Quite like those alloys on that PB! If only they were darker coloured...

Door bullets:

 

[Knuckles]

That must've been the prototype 182 (obviously?)

I kinda like the wide rear arch but I'm glad they dropped the vee inspired bumpers

 

[Flat Eric]

All sorts goes on at that factory. Would love to visit there. Not a fan of the megane style bumpers on that Clio though :-/

 

[Will.]

What the f**k is that yellow clio?

 

[ch!ppen]

What the f**k is that yellow clio?

Somebody in another thread from a while back mentioned it maybe running 225 gear. Which would make sense i guess with the wheels being 5 stud.

 

[lemonnobby]

looks like Dieppe its got 225 front brakes as well. wonder if its a test car before they brought the megane out looks good i think, rear wings look crap just stick on plastic

 

[VeinAST]

What the f**k is that yellow clio?

You fail. Looks epic! Much meatier than a standard 172.

Saved those pics ages ago for no reason whatsoever!

It's a prototype though. IF they'd stick with that rear wing i doubt it would just look stuck on like that.
These type of thing's don't have to be bang on when they're just testing.

 

[LiamR172]

Yeah as someone else said in another thread, its got 225 engine and brakes, thats why its 5 stud.

Looks odd, needs lows to look good imo.

SRS? Don't care what it is running it looks sh*t.

 

[jack_davey]

Maybe renault toyed with the idea of releasing a mk2 clio with 225 engine etc, but for whatever reason decided against it.

Thank god they didnt release it looking like that though!

 

[valerio]

They Are MILLE MIGLIA HT3 !

 

[valerio]

The wheel's you're looking for Are MILLE MIGLIA HT3 !

 

[ColinG]
