i know what you mean about the twitchyness
g40steve said:Well coming from owning a trophy for 2 yrs+ the 197 Cup i have now is more than a match for the trophy.
Standard no mods or sticky tyres all i can say is 'wow'.
The brakes are what the trophy needed from day day one, more feel & masses more stopping power that is endless, with no fade.
The extra width stance & track also has the effect of removing the twitchyness i used to experience with my trophy. (anyone who i have taken for a test drive in the trophy will vouch for this :lol: )
Yes it is heavier but compared to Silverstone last year in the 'modded' trophy not far behind. Once i sort the tyres it should be more than a match.
The gearbox, chassis & brakes are what makes this car.
The memories of the trophy are fantastic but time moves on & so does technology.
For me this car is the replacemant i have been looking for for the last yr, dismissed at first after 20 min test drive. But after 45 mins at RS trackday i knew this was what i was looking for.
Prepares for the flaming #-o

When you going to 'pop your cherry' & get out on track & see what your car is really capable of
All the 'pub' talk has to end sooner or later [-X
son of solo said:not great for clio vaules having another new shape coming out...the alien green looks slightly interesting...with black wheels and no side graphics....although i cant help thinking the colour options are a direct response to the new focus rs paintwork, especially the green.
1st thing i would do would be to remove the clio badge from the tailgate, its way too cluttered back there with the new tailpipes on show too.
Also available on the vauxhall tigra as I saw today and I must say that it looked totally horrific...!!Rexina182 said:The Clio 200 in Alien Green looks like a 1993 Polo.....
