Here's a few more. http://www.flickr.com/photos/87307417@N03/sets/72157631556930647/

As I said on OzRenaultSport, these are not serious tests, they are entertainment. I enjoyed seeing the 200 on TV, even if the now defunct Top Gear Australia was not a patch on the UK original, or even the US version. It was made on a shoestring and it shows.

That's true, although I tend to read the posts and check out the photos.

Well I may be slow, but not a novice by any description. I'm just pointing out these things are not so cut and dried.

I'd say not very much, if at all, based on my experience with a non cup 197, cup pack 200 and a data logger. I'm still to match the times I set in the 197 in my 200.

I know those cars! The Saturday afternoon barbecue at the dealers was just Renault Sport porn. Shame I was so sick on Sunday, but its always good to catch up with the OzRenault Sport guys (and gals).

I have Recaros in my 200. The main issue is wear and tear, which I've hopefully addressed with a leather upgrade. I don't find my seat to high, I can wear a helmet and not touch the roof. But the passenger seat which is not height adjustable is difficult to get in and out of. They're not called...

Agree... :)

In Australia we have a choice of two equipment levels for Clios. The 200 Cup, which is really the Clio 200 with the Cup pack. It does not have keyless entry. The other model is the Cup Trophee which does have keyless entry and Recaros among other minor things. Australian Gordinis were based...

All Australian spec Gordinis do not have keyless entry.

Actually it was Adelaide to Goulburn. OzRenault Sport (www.ozrenaultsport.com) is an on line forum, much like this one. The Clio featured in the video was written off in an accident soon after its return to Adelaide and has been replaced by another Clio 200. And yes, he was very keen to get to...

There's a lot of private roads in the UK :)

Welcome and congratulations..... Also all the way from Australia.

According to my data logger, Renault Sport Clios regularly pull in excess of 1G on the track with road tyres, so I think 1.2G is not unusual.

I got the full tank, but nothing else. I recycled the mats out of my 197 though. Nath, need to see some pictures soon.

My Clio 200...

Actually, there's no more dust in my part of the world than I noted in my recent visit to the UK. :)

It's 10,000 kms or 12 months on all Renault Sport cars in Australia. Normal Renaults have a 20,000 kms or 12 months service interval.

Road surface: varies from good to terrible, the good is mostly freeway roads. cost: the retail cost of the 200 Cup Trophee delivered and registered is A$43,000. Not cheap due to low volumes and within a couple of thousand dollars of a Golf GTI.
