Really impressive lap mate, nice and tidy and was keeping up with the big boys. Actually quite liked the exhaust noise too! Curious to see how a Trophy lap compares.

The Trophy is more driver focused much better at high speed thro the flowing stuff.The 200t is a bit too soft on the front end but still a good car for 98% of the time

What spoiler is that? Be interesting to see what it looks like from the back.

Front tinted windows, black diamond and aftermarket spoiler..... I think they all look the same lol hence the absolute need for something like different wheels.

For me the issue with the MK4's was they never really stood out against the standard MK4 clio as many people of said unless its pointed out its a RS at a Glace you might not even notice it was the top of the range RS version (Bar LY Cars), at least by adding the Cup racer spoiler and bit of "attitude" in stance and the front splitter it actually looks to me like abit more of Flagship model.
Was surely one of the reasons the RS.16 concept was so well received also as its finally looked like what people thought the RS models should look like and for me the car above goes some way towards that

The day someone makes replica RS16 arches/sideskirts will be a good day.

Completely agree, they could have done the RS 16 exterior with a breathed on 200t engine to show everyone it's different. I've had the Media Nav Mk4 model and there's not much difference at a glance.
Again everything's a matter of opinion but I think the Cup spoiler is a tad too oversized for the road going Clio, it looks at home on the Cup race cars with the livery, cage etc. I'm not totally against the spoiler but think the EDC needs more than just the spoiler to pull it off, like a set of OZ Ultraleggeras.

The lad that has that LY 200t above used to have a 200 but binned it. Wasn't a fan of the glued on extra bits on either to be honest.
They need some RS16 arches or something IMO. Just not different enough from a Dynamique.

I don't understand the issue personally - never not noticed one when I've seen one.
They have different bumpers, wheels, spoiler, side skirts.... Hmm does that remind me of every Clio incarnation since the ph2?
The Megane 2's didn't even get side skirts!
Are you saying they are not different enough or just not aggressive enough? The fact they dialled it back a bit is in keeping with their new stance on the whole mk4 philosophy isn't it?

The funny thing is, is that as soon as manufacturers make a car look a bit lairy people start whinging it's not understated!

As others have said, it could do with aftermarket wheels. The spoiler is a bit shouty but it does make it stand-out and gives it a bit more aggression. Someone seriously needs to rip-off the RS.16 wheel arches.
Are those R26 wheels?My first purchase would be these tbh, i think it looks great!
