Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news - NEW DETAILS #1779
Handling wise it sounds like it will be fantastic, I am not keen on paddles but its not as if using the 172 - 200 gearboxes is a particularly pleasurable experience.
I must admit I would probably miss being able to heel and toe but if it handles as good as it should, who cares!

Hope Renault aren't going to put up so much of a fight as they have done with certain issues on the 200 boxes
Does this mean any issues gearbox wise on the 200T however small could lead to requiring a new Gbox?

Exactly that! But its the same reason new Marc's don't have a sump plug and dipstick. It's so if anything goes wrong you have to take it to them to sort

Seal for life means sealed for the life of the warranty, in reality. Renault have no real interest what happens to the car when the warranty period has expired and the car is on the second or third owner.

Of course they do, until you've handed them the money.

I think you will find the vast majority sign a credit agreement. People with 20k spare tend not to brand new clios. Thats why they have 20k spare.

Review of the fiesta st

Sounds promising at £17k extent the clio to be £18-19k IMO!

The ST looks as bad as the clio. The manual gearbox is a bonus though. What they should have done is shoe horned the ST 2.5 litre engine in and detuned it slightly.
These hot hatch cars should be about a huge engine in a small car. Like the original 2 litre renault clio that must remain nameless in this forum.

What, it's got 30 more bhp than the older ST and its lighter (probably)

That old 2.5 wouldn't ever have met EU emmision regulations.

EU emissions regulations are for the little people only. I don't see Lamborghini, Ferrari or Aston Martin bothering with small 1.6 litre turbo charged engines.

They are relatively low output companies though.
Im sure it doesn't affect them like the giants, eg Ford/Renault etc

Lambo are part of VAG, Ferrari - fiat and Aston Martin ford iirc?
companies have been told to reduce co's over their whole range so whilst your v12 astons are spunking loads out your new 0.9l fiesta actually spouts flowers from its exhaust so it balances out

Do you think so? I see it slightly with the lights and window lines... but to me, the slats around the number plate on the new one, and the wheels already look dated compared to the 172!
Parked next to a Clio 4 today, picture doesn't really show it well but there is quite a size difference.
As much as I don't like the new clio shape it really shows how dated the PH2 looks against modern cars.

Got followed a few miles down a B road by one of them today, bizarre looking little thing, the Aston grille looks so odd on a shoe.
i'm surprised at how comparable the two clios above look size wise. Considering the mk2 vs mk3 looks like this...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news - NEW DETAILS #1779
Yeah, even the new Focus ST has to have a 2 litre EcoBoost engine. There's no way it'd have gone into the new Fiesta.

Time for some reviews so people can start eating their words and say that they didn't think it was really "that bad"
