Aup Calvin I've got a question for you, out of says 10 cars that come in to your dealership how many are faulty? Both Either people not telling you or them telling you there is a fault? Cheers kev

[@MrAshleydickens]

Need to make sure it’s been put in Race mode.. has 3 modes, Normal, Sport and then Race.. move the gear lever over to manual, and hold the RS button for 5 seconds, it turns full manual and changes gear super quick, and drivers completely differently. Also, launch control, hold both paddles and brake and throttle and it flies off.

[@_matty]

@@Alexander_l322 no worries mate couple of very important things to look for when buying one. 1: Cambelt & dephaser, they need to be changed every 5 years or 70k miles. 2: Rust, check the fuel filler cap and other obvious places 3: History, make sure it’s been well maintained and serviced backed up with paperwork

[@Alexander_l322]

@@_matty I’ll keep an eye out for a reasonably priced one with history and had the cambelt and pulley done. Ive heard things about that problem in the past. Cheers for the advice 😃

[@patrickgiannopoulos1111]

For faster shifts, he would need to switch to race mode. Car also has launch control. And it does share a similar gearbox to the 4c as they both use a dry clutch gearbox

[@The_journeyy]

Crazy to think this is a Clio, my first ever was a Clio the car was amazing until seven months in of ownership then the car started breaking every week after that

[@Formulozza1]

Calv, you need to try it in Race Mode, you only tried it in Normal and Sport! It becomes a different beast, ESC / traction goes fully off and the gearbox speed becomes lightning quick. Put the car into sport + manual, then press and hold the RS drive button for a few seconds to put it into Race.

[@Holdeenio]

I've always been a fan of the RS cars, never driven one this new though... It's a shame IMHO that they dropped the manual option. I always loved how engaging the driving experience is for such a low cost when compared to the equiavlent performance from the german market.

[@Y3DLO]

The akrapovic exhaust option-makes them sound even better I had one on the rs200 trophy

[@familyfirst4727]

My pal had one in liquid yellow rs top spec all the extras Inc akrapovic exhausts option nice cars and nippy but he paid around 33k brand new with his extras I didn't think it was worth that sort of money.

[@tavirosu25]

@@familyfirst4727 Indeed. Tho a 2017, so facelift with low miles and same specs are now half that, ~16k. Insane good value for money on the used market. I managed to get my 220 Trophy, late '17 with 25k km for 16.2k euro last year. Very happy with it! I mean for F sake, that's Dacia Duster money :))

[@arranshuker]

That's got a lot of stickers on it that aren't standard. The turbo on the sides, the RenaultSport on the drls, on the dash. The front bumper insert would have been silver front factory. The exhaust sounds like its got a resonater delete. If you press and hold the RS Drive button it will go in to RACE mode, this will not auto change gear for you, allowing you to hit the limiter, turn the traction and esc off. If you pull back both paddle shifters it will allow launch control. The ac will take a lot of the power from the engine, so if you do draggy times with launch and no ac, you may find that time drops a lot. I had a 65 plate lux in flame red. Beautiful colour. The later 2015 cars were improved on spec, but the facelift cars were the best, overall quality improvements, faster gearbox, better lights to name just a few things. Hugely impressive cars, especially in the right hands on a track. Great to see one on the channel. 👍🏼

[@rwinter26]

I saw the GT Performance sticker and wondered about the exhaust....

[@wonkothesane2288]

I must be old - I remember when Clio Williams came out - 150bhp!

[@woody555kl]

That was a good clio tho this isn't

[@EdgeOfPanic]

Clio Williams turned out more to be like 150 at the wheels, Renault actually understated the power! The legendary F7R engine, still very good, I have a low boost turbo converted F7R in my 1993 Renault 19 16v Ph2 (LHD), goes like stink!

[@wonkothesane2288]

@@EdgeOfPanic Good choice - 2 of my mates used to had 19’s back in the day! Also my Mum did too, but hers wasn’t a 16v. What sort of power and weight is your turbo’d 16v?

[@EdgeOfPanic]

@@wonkothesane2288 it's a low boost conversion about @ 0,75 bar, makes 230HP/300 Nm and about 1050KG. 0-100 km/h in 5.9 sec, 100-200 Km/h in 17.9 sec (about 7 seconds faster then Clio IV RS 200HP), now planning for fully forged internals,bigger clutch and more modern engine management so i can really open up the T28 turbo, aiming for about 300HP. There is also a 0 to 200 Km/h acceleration video on my channel done with the official dragy box.

[@LondonCarnaval]

if you looked up the manual or just asked uncle Google, you would have found out the right way to set here up properly and you would have had much better and correct timing/fun and experience 😉

[@dj_paultuk7052]

Almost like a modern day R5 GT Turbo. Feel like they are really fast. But in reality they are not. However, SOOO much fun to drive. And thats what its all about.

[@JustAGameShow]

I had two RS clios, the original 172, and a FF 182, were blissfully quick on a set of lights and embarrassed a lot of BMW M3/M5 owners in country roads.

[@dj_paultuk7052]

Mercedes A class models come with DCT. And if you have a A200d or A220d with the 2.2 diesel they have exactly the same AMG speedshift as the A45 first gen. They even have a secret mode for 100ms shift times. And if you get the Brabus D3 tuning pack like i had, then they are only 1.2 seconds off a A45 !. Very surprising and yet still do 70mpg. Real shame Merc have killed the 2.2d as the new 2.0d is not even close.

Problem with this for me is...... it looks nice an normal basic clio not a Renaultsport

[@brandonsmith_43]

Calv. If u hold down the RS button the car will go into race mode. The car will then have a Rev limiter and it sounds amazing.

[@meady200]

WTF the sound! Has someone transplanted a six cylinder under there?! 💯

[@JamesMonty]

I’m not surprised at the slow time, the car felt quicker than it was due the sound and feel. But that’s ultimately what we want. Still an awesome little car and I’ve many fond memories of mine

[@juicywelshman]

Owned a 2016 (pre facelift) 220 Trophy - good fun to drive and quick enough (although not quick enough to warrant a dry dual clutch box), but a nightmare to live with day to day. Chassis is way too stiff for every day driving and commutes. Sold it after 9 months!
