Alors qu'un de ses collègues prestataire encense son évasion et sa 106 : lui, il est là tout le temps.

Certains disent que les embauchés PSA peuvent rester 5 jours par semaine, malgré la grande majorité de leurs voitures de la concurence (6 sur 7 en fait !)

Alright. I’ll play along because there are, in truth still two issues to be decided: both hinging, in a way, about money.
The first is whether enough people want a 271bhp Clio RS with a manual gearbox. The first limited-edition Megane RS hatch, the R26.R, flopped. It was brilliant, but arrived just as the world’s finances crashed and the UK, a big market for mega-entertaining hatches, which had originally said it could sell 250 cars, eventually took fewer than 175.
There’s then the complication of fitting the changes to the Clio into the production process. The front suspension gets a double-axis strut, like the Megane RS does, to reduce torque-steering effects of all that power, but the Megane’s doesn’t directly fit. The engine wants locating in four places, not just three. Both front and rear tracks are wider by 60mm and the bodywork has grown to accommodate the Megane’s 19in wheels, which cover 350mm brake discs

All this is easily done for two cars – especially when one’s just a concept, eh chaps? Guffaw - but when it comes to rolling two or three Clio RS16s a day down the same Dieppe production line that also produces the regular Clio RS and will soon make the new Alpine sports car too, it presents its own ‘challenges’. Or ‘costs’, as you and I know them.

Removing the rears only saves 20kg and the RS16 hasn’t yet been through a massive weight-loss programme. The 2.0 engine is heavier than the Clio RS’s 1.6 but the manual gearbox is lighter than the regular Clio’s dual-clutch auto. A race li-ion battery means that overall, weight is little different.

High-speed stability isn’t an RS16 strong point, and the rear is mobile under braking and on turn-in, in that delightful Renault Sport way; a way that made the Volkswagen Golf GTI Clubsport S test driver, who set the front-drive Nurburgring lap record, pretty uneasy when he got hold of a Megane Trophy R and tried to drive it fast around the Nordschleife.

The RS16 is less oversteery than that Megane, but that gorgeous adjustability, the feel of a car rotating around its middle, is still there. It’s a total dynamic hoot

Peut être une surprise au Mondial vu qu'il n'y aura pas les Alpine
