    What a spectacular video, man! Here in Brazil we don't receive the Clio RS, but there is a legion of fans here, so much so that many owners convert their cars bringing parts from Europe to be as close as possible to a legitimate RS. Brazilian greetings.

      Thanks so much for your kind comment - it is great to hear that you enjoyed the video. That RS Clio 172 is a great car and is now back with a previous owner, who originally bought it in 2008!
      Please subscribe if you haven't already as we have lots more modern classic cars to feature!

    This video is superb! Really informative and well made. I’m collecting a 03 172 Cup from Cornwall on Sunday!

      Thanks so much for the kind comment - much appreciated. We are only 6mths into making RUclips content, but really enjoying it and it's great to hear from anyone who has enjoyed a feature. You'll love your 172 Cup; they are tremendous cars. If you like your hot hatches then do stay tuned.
      Good luck with your car.

    Currently driving 172 around as a courtesy car while my fiesta st200 is in the garage. For a 20 year old car wow what fun to drive the steering is sharp and pointy and the 2.0 l 16 v engine suits the car so much. It has definitely surprised a lot of cars on my commute to and from work. If you ever get a chance to drive or own one definitely go for it. You won't be disappointed

      Thanks for the comment. Great comparison, jumping from an ST200 (which is a brilliant car) into an older RenaultSport 172 and enjoying the way it drives is great to know. They certainly are fantastic little cars, but do stick with that ST200 as it is very special. Thanks for watching.

    Appreciate your taste in hot hatches.. but the id say at 25mph the chances of the bonnet flipping up on you would be fairly minimal.

    172 Phase 1 have almost the same half leather/half alcantara seats. Difference is in all leather support section and I have colorful Renault sport logo on them in my Clio.

    Clio 2 RS was indeed the 'best bang for the buck' hot hatch, only thing letting it down was the cheap plastics Renault used on the interior.
    Personally i think he front of the Phase 2 looks a lot better then the Phase 1 (looks a bit sad).

      @cornishcarcollectors  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for watching and for the comment - the Clio RS certainly was and continues to be a very decent hot hatch. Please do subscribe as we have lots of 80s, 90s and 00s hot hatches to come.

      @@cornishcarcollectors Sweet, looking forward to it! Got 90's hot hatch myself.
      An almost as new 1993 Renault 19 16v Phase 2 (LHD) with a low boost turbo converted 2.0 16v (F7R) does about 230HP/320Nm.

    Is that the road to Torpoint?
    I had a 172 & 182 from new, cracking cars. Sold the 182 for a 255 back in 2004. Still got the V6 now.

      It’s kind of what to expect from a cheap NA hatchback haha 6.5 / 7 seconds is pretty reasonable
