I was having fun with a Clio Sport 172....

....and it pissed all over me, however it was still fun and reignited my craving for more power. Might be time to sell up soon :lipsrsealed:

That is all.

Funny.

About an hour ago I was just thinking how much nice (In my opinions anyway) the Renault cup and trophy cars are.

The Renault has considerably more power and a chassis that goes around bends.

Yeah my mechanics son has an 02 plate 172, looks and sounds very nice.

The Renault has considerably more power and a chassis that goes around bends.

It has sh!t loads more power, but it was still a laugh (upto 60mph obviously). Was behind him for about 10 miles along good A-road/Dual carriageway so handling didn't really come into it, although i'm sure he would have spanked me even more along a nice twisty road :grin:

It's got me looking at clios though :lipsrsealed:

Looks like you need to upgrade to a Japanese car.

Yeah, thats the point, I love clio cup's and trophy's but they have the wrong image for me. For me, driving a golf is a happy medium between performance and style. I did used to have a clio williams and a clio 16v though, they were great.
