Only have driven home in it (20 miles) so Im just getting used to it.

Im going to do as the book says and run it in for 625 miles then all the revs are mine!!!

It seems very quiet inside so I may get an exhaust in the future.

It had the Cup 172 badges missing from the side of the car so they are on order!

Well I just want to get the running in period over and get used to it so I can drive normally.

Some Cup owners have had their cars on the rollers and are putting down about 180 BHP at the flywheel, we dont know what Renault have done to them, but its good.

I think 0-62 6.6
0-100 16.9
Top end 139MPH
1/4 mile 14.8


Renault are bring out there own mods that dont invalidate your warranty, I have been told the ECU is ready and I goes for £200.
A group N exhaust and filter should be ready soon.

Cant wait

This was taken of the cliosport bbs

To start with, I have got hold of two, i can get more if demand is high enough. One has gone, so there is one left at the second, it will arrive sometime the middle of this week in Staffordshire. Not much choice in colour at the minute sorry, but I am working hard to get this sorted.

RenaultSport Clio 172 Mk2 2.0 16v (like you didn't know)

UK Car, not import, full Renault Warranty.

NOT PRE-REG

Silver

CD Changer & sound system.

Climate & Aircon

All the other ***** and whistles.

£12,750

e-mail me if you are interested.

Cups definitely quicker and alot sharper than 172 in handling department. Well worth the sacrifice IMHO.
