After the slightly underachieving 197...

Basically a heavily facelifted 197...

The muscle it had been missing...

Say whaaat?

Yeah read that earlier. Good going tbh.

200’s have gained 3hp as well

Good read, they certainly got it wrong in regards to 197/200 differences though!

I seen this the other day, pretty miffed at how bad they made out the 197s to be, they’re virtually the same!

As above! I originally set out to get a 200 when I was looking, test drove about 3 and then viewed one 197 and bought it instantly, couldn't tell 2/3k's worth of difference in them personally.

I’ve always preferred the 197 front end especially with the RS splitter fitted.

Awesome little article tbh.

Though maybe it’s just me but I actually prefer the Clios minimal interior to the ST’s.

Haven’t had a crack in the STs for awhile though they must be a good laugh.

They really slated the 197, but then so did Evo aswell. Having not driven a 200 I cant say how much different it is but mine has 200 dampers and a few mods which should mean its comparable to a stock 200 at least power wise. Quicker steering rack is one I want but cant justify spending out for.
