I am not saying it rubbish but I would never trust auto express ever. The car looks great with the megane trophy front end and clio body. Anyways I heard this from Evo mag

http://www.evo.co.uk/carreviews/evocarreviews/254269/nissan_juke_16_turbo_petrol_review.html

so there loads of rumours going out about new clio. I'm just going to wait and see what RUK say.

thats a flipping nissan juke lmao

nice spot Woody lol but if you read on you'll get to this part

"The 1.6-litre direct injection petrol engine comes with a low friction lightweight design turbocharger and intercooler with twin variable valve timing (on the intake and exhaust cycles) to improve low-end response. Dubbed DiG-T the 1.6-litre certainly punches above its low capacity, with smooth, quick response and an impressive 2,000-5,200rpm peak torque spread. Rumour has it that it'll eventually make its way into the next generation Renaultsport Clio."

So Evo are saying next Clio will be a 1.6T and Auto Express will be a 2.0l n/a. Have to wait and see
