Took the words out of my mouth.
Another street racer to give the Clio a bad name, great!
Seems that owners are either Evo readers or boy racers - very different IMHO

Whichever has fuel
clio 172 what will i keep up with?
Not me. I would be a dot on the horizon to you son! lol
Seriously though, you need something smaller. You sound like an accident waiting to happen. With that attitude, going from a 1.2 to a 2.0 is a massive step in the wrong direction.

Buy a copy of Evo and check out the stats at the back - should give you an idea as to what it's on a par with.
e92 + E46 M3 + Cup
Lol pep, If you want a hot hatch to go fast in a straight line then look into a type R, very thirsty compared to the clio & alot dont come with air con :dapprove: .. but the clio does do well, have caught a few people of gaurd that were in bigger cars not expecting it to move like it does.. like its been said already, for the money you cant complain, aircon, leather seats, xenons etc on an 2002 plate for around 4k with decent service history, a half descent Type r will be 7k +... plus on the motorway at 70mph my 172 will return 45+mpg :approve: handy in these fuel pricey times
Monaco 37/468
Lol :lolup:
Clio 1.2 (progress)
lol u lot make me laugh how ur all like ooooooo u want to go fast tut tut boy racers... why the hell do you own 2ltr sport? TO GO QUICK!?! maybe lol!
.. so ruffly the 172 is not a bad overall car.. will keep up with civic type r's not bad.. i know for the money i could get alot faster.. but insurence is the issue lol the 172 is only 2.400 to insure so its not 2 bad lol where as scoobys are in the 4's for the people that said keep it to track it will be attending track sessions so this is another reason for wanting to know ruffly what it will keep up with.. only a question jesus lol

Everything.
a burnt one
Come on guys give the lad a break, ive lost count the amount of times ive read of stories on here about whos keeping up with who on their 'private' runway in the road driving stories section.
And lets be honest, it's something we all consider when deciding over what car to buy next, infact its not just considering its pretty high up the list of priorities.
Or am i to believe that you bought the clio because you loved the fact that everything rattles, that when doing more than 70mph the wind noise means you have to crank the stereo up, or the fact that the steering wheel decays in you're hand, exhausts rarely see out their warranty or just that it is a small hatchback synonomous with 'girly looking car', heck, you may even have bought it because Renault customer services are so great you love the repeated trips to the local dealer.
Despite all these things you still chose to buy one...why, because its a cheap fast car, which is basically the guys point so get off his back and give the guy some advice, we were all young once and dreamed of fast cars, those fortunate enough to be in the position to own one should lend their knowledge.
But no, this is cliosport so anyone in their teens who dares ask such questions and has a post count of less than 1,000 is automatically a chavvy boy racer.
For what its worth mate, buy a vag car and remap it, it wont rattle, and even a diesel not only keep up with but in most cases tear a standard 1*2 a new a**hole.
Despite what you will read on here, a renaultsport clio is not the best thing since internet p**n.

TBH it's quite an unremarkable car that you have to rev the bollox out of to make serious progress

Nah matey uk spec turbo is only 220bhp IIRC or a touch more, due to the extra weight of the 4WD system they aren't THAT quick tho if its UK STI with PPP at 300bhp or above it'll kill a 172/182/197..and maybe just maybe a meg 225/230 (but shhh dont tell meggerman)

What the hell does 'ruffly' mean?
I have no idea what you just wrote.
When someone ask the question, "What can I keep up with?", it does present a picture in most peoples' mind that the person asking the question will be constantly up someone's backside, everywhere they drive. It's ammo for bragging rights and a boost to the ego, should some other twit in a hot hatch decide they want to race. Yes, people buy the Clio because it is quick but that doesn't mean racing every car that has been listed.
