So after a 6-7 week wait I finally picked up my Clio 200 on Friday. So far I have travelled the grand total of 25 miles due to the snow and it's now safely tucked up in my garage where it will remain until the snow disappears. Driving home in the snow yesterday wasn't much fun, I got caught in a blizzard and really struggled for grip.

Options include:

- Cup pack (suspension tweaks and red brake calipers)
- Black speedline alloys
- Albi blue paint

Apologies for the poor pictures, these are the ones I took when I collected it.

I wish I could tell you more but I have hardly driven it. The only option I regret not adding now are the electric folding mirrors, would have made it much easier getting in/out of the garage.

Unfortunately it needs to go back in the new year as there was a nasty nick on the rear passengers side bumper. Looks like it has been scraped. Most of the scratches came out, there was one that went through to the bumper itself. The dealers have promised me they will address it in the new year and it will be as good as new once done. We'll see!

Good luck with that.
My BMW has some scratches the dealer said they'd get rid of, but they took too long and I was impatient so I just took it.
Now there's realistically no chance of them getting it done as the dealer is the other side of Brussels and I really can't be arsed to go there, leave the car and deal with all that faff on top of them being uncooperative..

The problem is once they've given you the keys, they really don't care. Although I hope your dealer is nice :p

They still handed over a car with scratches after a PDI? That's poor :(.

Other than that, she looks good. Enjoy it :).
 
Looks awesome, though can't help thinking some multispokes would suit it better, something like a speedline turini.
 
Nice car :)

For some reason I'm not a fan of any of the wheels that you can choose for these, although the speedlines are a million times better than the bog standard alloys imho.
 
Very nice indeed. Cracking colour. I'll bet you are itching for the snow to finally bog off so you can give it a damn good thrashing. :p
 
I'm not a big fan of the Clio, or many of the French cars for that matter, but that's a fairly good looking car that. I absolutely abhorred the older model, I thought it was vile but there's certainly a huge improvement there.

Tom's got one of these on order too?
