when I get bored of it.. I drive a 3.0TD auto pickup truck.... soon puts me back in love with the clio!!!
lol fiesta ST is utter chav wagon lol I never see any1 normal in an ST.
I fell out of love with the 197 a long time ago. it cost me way too much money for the car it was. i spent rediculous money and still didnt love it. my mate bought an evo spent £400 and had it running 414 bhp it also handled better lol
Mike, aside from a leisurely ride around the 'ring, have you tracked your Clio at all? Best way to remind yourself of just how good it is. If it is solely a road/weekend car then there are arguably better cars out there. Are there any particular aspects of the car that are annoying you?
I have a 1,4 clio I drive during the week, so only get to drive the 197 at weekends, yet still can't get back in with the 197.
I just hope I can do the ST swap. I love the ST a little too muchNathan's ST is awesomely fast - same as the 197, but it is a little rough lol. Standard ST (Matt's) is smooth drive, no not as fast, but still love it.
I am sure I will be back loving it even more soon (197)![]()
Nothing against them other than the stripes tbh, would be interested to try one to see how it compares. Only ever seen them driven quite slowly for some reason :s
That's nice to know that not every one dislikes us
DS3-R isn't my cup of tea but its a insight into what the modern day small quick hatch will become. Modern drivers want good all rounders -striaght line speed, good on twisties with electronic drivers aids and return 28-30mpg. New clio will be equally good.
I don't expect my 4 year old Clio to offer me the same as a 200. The new Clio will equally be better than that. Furthermore, to buy a modern day Ds3-R is 21 grand. I can think of better things to do with my money. Thats Meg 250 and Focus Rs money. Spending more per month on a car than my mortgage makes no financial sense.
Enjoy want is a fantasic little car for what it is. If you want more than it offers....your driving the wrong car
