Renault Clio RS 200 Priced and Detailed (UK)

A drag doefiicient of 0.75? That's the same as a barn door, isn't it? Surely it should be in the 0.3 - 0.36 region. I think you mean its CdA, which is the drag coefficient times the volume of the frontal area. Is this hair splitting enough? ;-)

so much uglier than the pre-facelift model

Why, why and why again, is renault "face lifting" all their cars to make it look like a large elephant sat on them? Surely in a financial crisis or whatever, a car maker would want to make its cars look appealing. Don't first impressions still count anymore? If I were a car salesman I couldn't sell this car with any conviction at any price. I'd probably be honest and tell my customers to go to the next dealer for something that hasn't been squashed. Perhaps Renault is outsourcing their design team to Middle of Nowheria and employing children at less than a dollar a month to redesign their cars in order to save money. My next car? NOT RENAULT.

i dont get what is with the facelifting either... renault used to look awesome but since Ghosn took over... but so many cars these days are ugly and overstyled. bring back the late 90s

I dunno about you, but I like this new facelift. Looks better than pre-facelift. Well... Er, whatever. If it still has the RenaultSport hot hatch blood, that's what counts.
