I actually quite like the look of it, its growing on me all the time. Cant wait to see what the RS version will look like, but itll be 2007 before I get one I should think.

Will the new version have deadlocks?

Yes

I presume it will be the same entry system as seen on the megane2, with the option of remote unlocking as you walk towards it.

Another Clio lll article here: http://www.carkeys.co.uk/features/product/2005/6334.asphttp://www.carkeys.co.uk/features/product/2005/6334.asp

Sounds like another car that has grown in size! Soon a supermini will be the size of a large family car! Look at the size of the first GOlf GTi compared to the more recent models!

Deadlocks with remote key operation as standard. The hands free card from the Megane will be an option

Looks like Renault didnt receive the design blueprints sent in by Cliosport.net. Too late, its here now.

It looks ever so slightly different to many cheap little cars today. If you debadge it, it will pass for anything lol.

I wish Renault every success with it, and hope they set a little profit aside for the production of a replacement V6.

James - thanks for your good wishes

Looks like a Pug 206 on side profile.

I wish I could find the thread describing peoples first reactions to the Mk2 Phase 2 Clio (the current model that we all know and love). It was almost universally disliked.

Most of us bought one.

Excellent!

I bet most people on here will end up buying the new RS Clio - including the people who think the new version is fugly hehehe.

Wonder if there will be any other options with the RS? Competition standard suspension per the new Trophy would be nice. Unless the mark 3 has moved the game on so much that its already there...
