clio rs 200 turbo uk spec details
- Thread starter Foxspeed
- Start date
Which is really odd because when I parked my 200 alongside a mk4 Clio, mine looked huge!
In isolation thy look bloated and mpv like but up close and alongside other cars I think they look fantastic. Th front end of my 200 looks so last decade by comparison.

Car magazine - Williams 200T in 2014
Ive just read the first 200T v 208Gti test in car magazine.
In the Clio test it forecasts the development of Recaro/Sabelt seats for the 200T and also a hotter Williams style version for 2014.
It is an interesting test as is does identify the 20% of owners who will be "hardcore" Clio Rs against the broader 80% of those who simply want the hot version but without the narrow appeal of the outgoing model. Worryingly it states for that 80% the Polo Gti would be a better proposition.
It also alludes to the Fiesta ST and what a superb car it is.
I dont know but I fear the RS Clio is about to lose its crown to the blue oval. If the Focus ST is anything to go by in its peer group the Fiesta is going to take a hell of a lot of beating as a complete package.
The potential for a hotter more focused 200T will undoubtedly leave a lot of potential owners keeping their old 200 another 18 months.

Yes there will be a more focused Clio if only because every magazine review states that its lost its edge. Still a good car, but not what it was so Renault will want to keep their high spending customers.
As for the Focus have you driven it? I was very disappointed, very disappointed indeed. And I'm a huge Ford fan and I'll state its not the car it should have been. And that's why its not selling. Honestly how many have you seen on the road? I know my local dealer hasn't sold any ST Focus' this year.
The Fiesta looks top notch indeed.

There will be a more "focused" 200T within the year.
The cars lacking soooo many things; think due to external factors (I.e. Recaro's)
No doubt people will wait and buy the "better" one
I know I would

I knew this was going to happen, everyone kept banging on about its new launch control and double clutch gear box and fancy other electric gizmos, but now someone has finally provided the TRUE track test.
I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bull****. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free...
:driveby:
only two cars and one track probably two different drivers, doesnt mean **** tbf
