Damm, another Albi Blue!

Hi all...

Got mine very end of Dec 09.

Not had much chance to use it cos of snow etc.

Managed to give it a good thrashing over the last couple of weeks.

Only nearly used a tank of fuel!

I thought it was a bit slower than I expected from a 200bhp car to start with... (been driving diesels 4 2 long!)
then, via clio 197.net, I realised that you need to rev it hard! I.E.till the green light comes on.

It can be a bit 'twitchy' when going for it on the bumpy back roads, but I guess still prob better handling than some higher powered cars.

Anyway... love it more each time I drive it.

Welcome.
