thanks for the input guys, i think the general consensus is that while they all have there joker, most of today's hot hatches are holding a fairly even hand. suppose it really comes down to the confidence you have in the steed you choose and thus how hard you can ride it. ^^ analogy FTW! at...

Ok, so i posted the other day about my test drive of the 200. Before I buy over the next few months I decided it would be the best idea to test drive everything lol. Just drove a civic type r FN2 (2008) and was really impressed. it felt a lot heavy but well planted and also felt quick...

Ok so i just tested a 200, and it was pretty fast, But a month or so ago I test drove a 197 and it seemed significantly faster. The 200 had 9k on the clock and the 197 had 38k on the clock. Is the sluggishness due to mileage? as I have read on here that the engines are not properly run...

yer, i guess so. Ive actualy booked a test drive as I found a place that does an ecu remap on them to 178bhp, which could be interesting. Would have to do a hell of a lot to sway me from clio though.

Was out with my mate today in his 123d M Sport, he's not a bad driver and although a bit heavy the 123d is a damb quick, but this little MX5 2.0 Sport stuck right on our ass all the way from Stansted to Milton Keynes (on the back roads not the motorway). I've driven one but always assumed a...

really you want paddle's? I test drove the new seat Ibiza cupra with the dsg paddles and its ****, i mean yer smooth changes but it still does it on its own if left in high revs more than like 7 seconds and to me it takes abit of the feeling out of things not having a clutch oldly i like...

Hi Guys, Just found this, thought you would appreciate it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REYyPQgRyEg

broadspeed.com go on there any check out the percentage discount's. Not bought a car from there before but its recommended by topgear mag

Yo guys, just a question, ive been reading online that when some clio 200/197's have been dyno'd there producing closer to 180bhp not 200? is this true? if so bit of a disappointment. cheers

Yo guys, Just test drove a 197 (was trying to find one with a cup chassis but none were near me) and I have to say, I am damb impressed with this little car. It actually felt just as quick in a straight line as the 240 cupra leon i tested last week, authough it probubly wasn't. But it stops...

hmmm yer think ur right, gunna just test both n see... only pulled away at 125though, tbh, having fun in the bends u rarely see the naughty side of 120 anyway.

Yo guy's, Realise ive only just posted a comparison thread for the clio 200. But i noticed on the site that a few of you have changed in your 197's for R26's. Im thinking i should go test drive the R26 as well now. How does it stack up against the 197/200?

lmao ^^ thats ****in brilliant

yo guys, cheers from info lol, yer just wondered MPG not botherd by it at all as my current car already only does 30mpg max. 1.6 sportka, bit girly i know but was fastest thing i could insure when I was 17 :)

awsome, cheers guys just booked my test drive for next week, can't wait. 1 other question, the dreaded mpg. Not summing im really fussed about coz its not what you buy the car for and I only live 6 miles from work, but ever other weekend its an 80 A road and motorway trip to my GF's house...

hmmmmm, thats sounding quite good to me lol, o and my question was how would it stand up against a focus st in straight line speed not the RS, in straight line the RS would leave it i know that. I'm booking a test drive for next week in a clio 200 to see what its like. My current fave...

Yo Guy's, New to forum coz im thinking of buyin a clio 200 with cup pack added. Just wondering how they compare to some other hot hatches; my mate has a 123d and my dad had a focus st (ive seen the vid of 200 vs the RS but don't honestly believe it would stay with it on actual real...
