The reviews of the v6 clio that I have read recently do not rate it perticulerly highly at all. Look at the performance specs. Pretty pants for something that size carrying 200+bhp. I was hoping for better.....

Came across this a week or so ago. Not sure whether to look in awe/dribble or laugh. I suppose it's about time that they came out with something mildly up to the good old Lotus Carlton... Unfortunatly, the front end looks butt ugly. When I last read about this, they really weren't sure if it would really be made. Just remember, it's a vauxhall and lotus won't be involved this time.....

waayheeeyyy.. revenge of the astra - not only can you go through a hedge backwards now, you'll be able to carry on through neighbouring field, and clean through the new housing development behind it..

V6 Clio looks a bit girly all of a sudden

Thumbs down

What a load of old **** !!

Looks like some 17 year old has found the biggest tackiest front spoiler he could from Les Smith and glued it onto the front of his Astra !!

And what about the doors ??? DMC or Lambourghini.

They just showed this on Top Gear and said that it wasn't actually going to be produced - just a concept car I guess.

Me just being fussy, But for those who can't remember the mildly amusing GMC DeLorean's, I think that's what Olly was going on about

Question

Looks much better in white in this weeks actual Auto Express magazine.

Still looks unwieldy as a road car though

Thumbs up

I think it was DMC as in Delorean Motor Company, nothing to do with General Motors. May be wrong though
