There's a guide her mate.. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?562600-172-182-Guide.-Cup-Packs-Spec-Info

But it's not a Clio Sport. It's a RenaultSport Clio.

As it's black, it's not a Trophy (only red) or a Cup (only inferno orange or racing blue).

It might be a 182 with cup packs, which is a slightly bigger spoiler, slitter or/and cup suspension and anthracite wheels.

I know I'm old and stupid, but where does he say it's black?

 

[Pl8yer]

Have you measured the strut spacing then? Because if not it could be a half fat 182, like mine!

 

[Pl8yer]

No I havent measured strut, just re checked guide. I might have a half fat one then lol.
If its full fat how long should the struts be?

 

[PP200t]

It's the bolt spacing I believe. Only reason I mention it is I only have the spoiler pack (wierd first owner!!)

 

[Gandi69]

Does it have grey wheels and sit a little lower? it so its most like got the cup suspension pack. Measuring the bolt spacings is the only sure fire way though, knowing how much these cars get played with

 

[Pl8yer]

Do you mean measure the bolt spacing on the hub?
I cant tell re suspension or wheels cause both have been change and are none standard. My clio is low as fcuk. 40mm springs I believe. The bolt spacing is that the ET?

How can you buy a car and not know what you've bought?! Is it just me?

 

[Jekyll]

cup packs include larger rear spoiler, front splitter, anthracite wheels and upgraded suspension.

measure the bolt spacing on the hubs or suspension arms as pictured (badly) below

 

[Pl8yer]

Can u not go to your local renault dealer give them the reg they might be able to tell you from there computer database type thing

I guess its just you you cant blame the guy the clio range has plenty of cars that look the same, theres more than enough room for confusion.

 

[Pl8yer]

In all fairness unless you spend hours on end researching before you buy a car you end up finding things out you didnt know before. I usually tend to buy cars on impulse. If I like it I buy it sort of thing.
Ive found out so much more about this car after thanks to this forum. When you
buy these clios second hand a lot of the sellers dont say what cup packs or full fat etc.

I take it you found out all about them when you purchased a clio then?

 

[DrR]

There is only 3 types lol.

Yup. The difference in spec can mean a big difference in price.

It doesn't help that people get it wrong. Talking of which, your profile.. It's a 'RenaultSport Clio' not a 'Clio sport'
