Very nice Nicole...

I must mention a drop in ride height would really go well here !!!

A subtle drop in height makes a huge difference in appearance... and corners  :wink:

Cool, many thanks  :happy2:

I'll have to see if they'll let me have one out on a test drive for a few days. There's also a Renaultsport track day at Oulton next month I may go along to and see if I can snag some pax rides (or even a spin)???

That new Megane 250 Cup is out very soon too, might be worth a looskie.

welcome. I might go to that oulton park day, but yet to book anything, so may see me there and get a spin in nicole.
As for the 250, not sure on it myself, rather a R20.

And yep rich, drop is in order. Handling wise, you'd be very surprised at this in standard form, impressed a friend of mine with a 225 tt and 4wd of course, stuck with him around a large roundabout :D

Cool.

I might re-create Paris circa 1940 and have a German track invasion on you cheese eating surrender monkeys.

I only live a few miles from Oulton, so let me know if you're coming and I'll bring me lid!

An interesting mix...

Not that I've been looking  :innocent:, but apparently you can buy lots of bits off one of these to bolt onto your car... yak yak!!

Really liking your graphic creations! You possibly already know that I'm a retired graphic design consultant so I'm hardwired into identity assessment.

I have just gone the other way, from a 197 to a Golf R32. The Clio was a great little car, but it only does fast. You can't really stick one in 6th and cruise down a motorway in one, it belongs on a B-road or a track. My favourite giant-killer vid is this one, where a Clio driver who appears to know the Nordschleife very well hassles a Porsche driver who obviously doesn't!
