    Yeah, he can beat a rear wheel drive mid engined 3.0 v6 RENAULT in his peugeot! BOLLOX!
    Sorry to say but this is totally true. The Clio V6 weighs near 1400kg and that's at huge disadvantage. I can't give you Autocars official figures but they're the ones that found it out first. The Sport version of the 172 is even faster and cost £1k less cos they have taken all the heavy goodies out.
    The MK2 V6 has 250bhp and is a much quicker motor

    Edit : Oops. Overstated the case for the 172 a bit, it is a touch slower than the 230bhp V6, though not by much. Autocars headline figures are:
    • Sport Clio : 172 | V6 (MK1)
      Top Speed : 137 | 146
      0-60 : 7.1 | 6.6
      0-100 : 17.9 | 17.1
      Bhp : 172 | 230
      lb/ft : 148 | 221
      Kg : 1059 | 1340

    Gives -
    Power to Weight (per tonne) : 162.4 | 171.6
    The V6 MK2 at their recent handling day has 255bhp on 1400kg to give 182 bhp per tonne.
