A few weeks ago I mentioned Id ordered a Clio Cup and someone was rather quick and said it would never be as good as the Cooper S. Id like to point them to this months Autocar. Heres a little clip....
"But before you dismiss the Renault totally, just mull this one over in your mind for a moment. Imagine yourself sitting at a set of traffic lights in you new Cooper S. The lights go green and your floor the throttle to impress the upstart in the Clio on your right, having flicked the silly traction control off for maximum effect, of course.
And then the Clio Cup just leaves you for dead. Makes you look like you bought the wrong car "
The defense rests.....
