900kg + 4x12" subs, amps, pregnant b*tches etc = 1100kg

You missed out the LTD. wide boy bodykit thought chap. another 100kg, mostly filler.
Clio 182 Cup
LOL!! and the k & n air filter sucking in hot air
and the 'superchip' they got off ebay giving them 30bhp 
Yozza'd Titanium 182
ive personally had 4 drag race's with a vtr (on private land) 1st gear the vtr was away...
bang into second, the clio starts to creep up and also holds second gear for long IMO 3rd gear clio easily overtakes 16v kicks in 4th and 5th, ur away. and not just buy a bit...
clio is faster, nicer and a better non chavy car... but.......
im suprise the vtr is lighter?? didnt know that
and i thought vtrs vere 90 bhp?

172Cup, Golf Gti 1.8T
The phase1 VTRs (with the square headlights) were all 90bhp but the later models with the 'tear drop' headlights were all 98bhp.
There was a slight overlap when the face lift model came out but I'm not sad enough to remember the exact year....I'm sure someone on here is though!
Depends whether you want to drive one of those recylable fabric carrier bags from M&S with a 1.6 litre engine in (Clio) or an Asda plastic bag with a 1.6 litre engine (Saxo). I'd take the extra weight over broken legs if you have crash tbh, remember, you're the crumple zone in a Saxo . Go for the Clio tbh.

I'm not even going to comment. Everyone in this thread bar the OP has never driven either IMO.
Mazda 323f 2.0 sport
vtr's are s**t,a had one and it was slow as f**k.
I've driven both. the vtr is awseom fun, feels a lot more hmm i cant think of the word, than the clio, but id rather have a 1.6 clio over a vtr. But i'd rather have a vts over a 1.6 clio or even a S1 rallye. S1 rallye ftmfw tbh

I've kept up with a VTR before, and mines a 1400. VTR's are s**t. its the VTS's that you need to be afraid of

At least you'd live to tell the tale if you smashed the Clio! Saxo's are wafer thin and deathtraps!

Id love to say all no go and no blow but honestly the Saxo VTR is quicker than your 110bhp clio down to the power to weight ratio. 0-60 is 8.9 (claimed).
The saxo weighs 935kg's less than a ton so the ratio you can forget it...

110 v 111 bhp per ton. Too close to call if given death from the off I'd say.
Former R27 & Mk1 V6 owner
Performance would be very similar - I'd imagine the VTR would have the edge. Clio a lot nicer inside, and a lot safer, with a bit more room for mates. But if it's only performance that matters the VTR, especially if a 100bhp later one, would probably be a bit quicker and is certainly a better handler than a non-RenaultSport Clio. Just IMO of course.
VTR has a lot of tuning options available as well, some choice breathing mods can pull decent power gains on them, not as much as the 16v engine but not too shabby either. Then it'd have a good advantage IMO.

My old 1.4 16v clio was exactly the same is a vtr. Dont no what all the fuss is abouy with them, there rubbish. 1.6 clio any day! Loads of low down tourqe. vts's arnt particularly quick, bit nippy but wasnt bowled over when i drove one. clio FTW, new cams, chip, slammed and you will eat them both for breakfast.
fabia vrs
Id have a clio all day long !! you should go for a nice mk2 ph1 rsi !! Half leather etc.. and then put the best brakes /coilover's you can afford on it then go slay some saxo's !!!

The VTR is NOT quicker than the Clio. Ive driven both and I own a 1.6 and a VTS. You can pick a VTR up for pennies now and they are awsome fun to drive and cheap to run. All the bellends stereotyping are idiots.
I'd take the Clio over a VTR purely because of how much better the chassis and build quality is, but then its a lot more expensive. The Clio is a lot faster than Parkers will ever tell you so get your heads from up your arses. RS Clios aren't te millenium falcon that everyone thinks. POint to point either of these with a few choice mods will be no slower point to point driven right.

Not all of them were early 'teardrops' got a silvertop engine like the later ones but still had 90bhp, You can only tell by looking under the bonnet as they have a different airbox, TB and no cat in the manifold
Stagecoach Ticket
My mate had a vtr it never seemed to run right at all and even when it did it would be about a week before somthing else broke. also felt like you were sharing the inside with 100 spanners the amount it rattled. might just be that one though.
to be honest though nither of them are going to amazingly different the clio will be abit nice inside and more comfy.
the saxo will be abit more basic and better handling i would of thought
performance wise not to much in it ??? :dapprove:

My nan drives a Saxo...is she a c.unt?
Stereotyping small minded pillock
I'd go for the clio at the end of the day, purely because I prefer the shape. (Yes it really is that simple for me). Saxo's are huge fun to drive though. Just not my cup of tea.
