Renault Clio III RS

[Matra et Alpine]

The original was so much more aggressive..this is just another Renault. Sigh.

Are you thinking of the mid engined V6 Clio ?
A totally different beast and not ever likely to return (sadly)

[TVR IS KING]

The grill makes the car look Renault.
"Renault" being used as an adjective.

[spi-ti-tout]

Then you wind it out and wham it embarrasses all the "fast looking" sports cars and Civics with Typre-R stickers and wings

Yes but WHY does it have to have such a fat ass?

It's a part of Renaults current "look"

and guess what .. this new one might well do a better time than the Clio V6 on track .. 100% percent sure of it

The ads were made to justify the look which appearently has no reason and looks ugly

Whereas the V6 looks so much more aggressive and pointy this one looks like my grandmother's car. You'd buy it for style, not speed.

"promote" not "justify".
THe "ass-end" look was first developed on the Avantime.
I'm one who LIKES it in real life. ( But it fails when applied to the Espace !! )
HAve you seen one or just pics ??

eh ? The Clio RS is going to see many a "sports car" off around the tracks
The styling is VERY European modern and similarities with new Pugs and Seats isn't lost on most of us. Even the new Civic is taking design clues from France !! ( 'cept seemignly the Brits were involved in the new Clio )

There were a few in the neighbourhood before the Arabs put a ban on them

Get some GLASSES you old fart

I never said the RS didn't have speed I said the Clio looks like your proper track bastard

And my grandmother likes new designs, so there!

ooooh, usign grown up language ???

WOW.

Go back adn read the quote I was commenting on and THEN you can come back and apologise

"You'd buy it for style, not speed"

I will accept by PM to save you having to admit to being an idiot in public

sorry but I don't think one is in order for anything

what is apparent to me might not be to you

notice I never actually said anything on the performance
I said the key factor you'd buy it for is styling because it looks '(insert words like chic, in, etc here)', the speed bit doesn't blend in much considering that.

Wow, you're good enough to join rr.com !!!

You did NOT SAY "KEY FACTOR" you made that up.
You may have WANTED to type that but you didn't.

you DID say you woudl NOT pick the car for speed.
Again somethign you're trygin to wriggel out of.

you either typed sh!te that you didnt' mean or you're lying your ass off to avoid being too embarrassed.

Learn a lesson -- it's easier to put ones hand up and say "that's not what I meant" than it is to try to make out you said somethign else. The latter works in the playground coz most folsk won't remember the earlier conversation> It's a STUPID defence on the 'net coz everyone can go back and see what was ACTUALY TYPED

You did NOT SAY "KEY FACTOR"

Must you be explained everything?

Yes I did not type key factor EXACTLY. "I said the key factor you'd buy it for is styling because it looks '(insert words like chic, in, etc here)', the speed bit doesn't blend in much considering that." was written to EXPLAIN to you something that appearently you can't understand.

"You'd buy it for style, not speed"

Pretty obvious what key factor is I think

you DID say you woudl NOT pick the car for speed.

not at all

quote: "You'd buy it for style, not speed"
I did not comment on the actual aspect of performance
whether it has speed or not is irrelevant as I'm commenting on the style

in other words

I would OVERLOOK / not bother with performance (for the style)

you either typed sh!te that you didnt' mean or you're lying your ass off to avoid being too embarrassed.

very convenient way of opening the "choice porthole" for me

I will settle my own things thank you
