not on 2004, 2005 maybe!

I really hope it isnt that Clio 180 that everyone has been talking about, that would be a real shame a stupid marketing. Looked pretty bad with those twin exhausts too, real sticky tape job.

 

[Tom]

Oh dear.

 

[RobFenn]

So is the V6 exhaust system tacky?

No, as that is built correctly, the twin exit i saw was a couple of tiny pipes that popped out the bottom of a standard 172 bumber with half-circles cut away - real diy job.

Although I do think that Renault want all their Sport range to have twin exhausts.

Do we have any REAL pics of this 2004 model?

Its a 2003 with personalisation options.

 

[jon_r]

PIMP seats!!

 

[Dash]

I wouldnt like to see the oily marks left by the Renault fitters.

My dealer puts the protective seat covers on. After they have worked on the car

 

[VX-Tony]

But the 2003 model has supposably died and no-one has had these "personalisation" options. bit odd to bring them out for a car theyve stopped producing ??

The personalisation programme is on sale in the rest of Europe but not the UK at the moment
