    Real MPG

    Hi all, Recently stumbled across this website where you can enter the actual average MPG you're getting from your vehicle. There are plenty of sub-categories for models, and the Clio 2.0 is there too. So get entering yours! http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/realmpg/ The interesting part...

    Downsizing...

    I like the 133, but isn't the 0-62 difference around 2.5 seconds? I know when I jump in my Toyota Yaris 1.33 from being in my Nissan Juke 1.6 all week I can feel a complete difference. However, they're more like 3.7 seconds apart! Test drive a Twingo 133, then you'll know.

    The Clio Future

    If I concentrate and drive extremely carefully I can manage 49mpg, but driving like I stole it I'm averaging 25-35mpg. Being a turbo, you never really feel like you're pushing it though. Depending on your driving nature, this can be seen as a positive or a negative. Be warned, she's a...

    The Clio Future

    Hi guys - haven't been on here for awhile (ordered a Clio 200 in December 2010, changed my mind and got a Nissan Juke Dig-T instead), so this is a really ironic post for me. I'm also part of the Juke Owners Forum (posting under the same name) but still regularly check the Clio 197.net forum...

    Second thoughts about buying a 200 cup

    Considering bank loans are about 12.9% at the moment, and Renault offered me 3.9% on a new 200, you can't afford NOT to buy new, unless you have the money sat in your account anyway. Besides, do any of us "need" a Renault hot hatch? I doubt it, we all "want" one. A £500 old Nissan would do...

    Liquid Yellow w/Cup Spoiler (London m4 north)

    Couldn't work out if it was a 197 or a 200. Very tasty whichever! Saw going northbound out of London today on the M4 at 2:45pm.

    Sign The Sun fuel tax petition

    I agree, as it can't be argued, that prices are ridiculous right now. But I will never, ever sign a petition on the SUN. A paper that, with every article, treats the reader like an idiot. Fuel prices are rocketing, and something needs to be done. Whatever it is, it can't be done by the SUN.

    Cup Spoiler, Brap!

    If I ever had any doubt in the idea of ordering my 200 with a spoiler, they would've all disappeared thanks to these pictures. Many thanks for this :)

    Second time I've read this post, and still can't get this moment from Star Wars out of my head.

    I don't think it's "THAT" expensive, people are jumping on this a bit much. Remember he has added almost £1500 worth of extras. That doesn't just disappear.

    A lesson for your future though - don't put a deposit unless you're 100% sure you want it. I ordered my 200 before coming to these forums and to be honest, being here has only made me want one more.

    Contemplating selling up!!

    Haha, people never listen until it is too late. I suppose it's good to allow people to make their own mistakes.

    Contemplating selling up!!

    Yeah I considered the VXR as well, before I bought the 200. It all comes down to personal taste, however looking back I cannot see why I ever even looked twice at the VXR. Went round in circles, watching hundreds of videos, reading hundreds of reviews and kept coming round to the same...
