But they did like the car
And great little car. I came close multiple times to getting the Clio RS 200, the yellow paint is probably my favorite!
Took mine out for a small warm-up, currently without plates but next year it will be put back into traffic. I'd rather sell my soul than this car.
I went back to RWD but given the space I'd put a sharp FWD hot hatch in the stable before anything else.
Small but funky ... and a lot more fun than the Smart
After fitting a KW V1 suspension, a Quaife LSD, 19 mm spacers on each side and better tires (Pilot Sport 5) it's bonkers sharp for street-use. On the track a set of sticky semi-slicks would be perfect. The added cold-air intake and ECU-upgrade contribute to a much quicker throttle response as well. Very sharp but still possible to drive it as a daily if necessary.
