From my limited experience of playing with cars like that (hardly anyone ever tries it on with me) they can put up a fight until you throw some corners in, at which point they very quickly become a dot in the mirror.

Renault expect he was to ashamed to admit he had to go back and collect the bits that fell off
Like all Renaults, power to weight ratios always improve with driving especially under hard conditions.

This bit cracked me up a bit
"yeah was nice, he was a flash git tho with the roof down!"
Well it is a fekin converible, got to question the intelligence of some of these Clio drivers

Clio Williams is >100bhp down on an S2K.
Couldn't have been trying.
(I had one of the first Clio 16v cars in the country ...... the build quality was the worst I have ever come across (3 clutch cables, rear window exploded, fuel pipe broke, wheels more corroded than the S) Luckily it was a company car)

204bhp per tonne will be faster than an s which would be 17bhp per tonne down.
All about power to WEIGHT which so many people forget. How I get by with 'only' 190bhp I'll never know
