  • Clio Renaultsport 200 Raider

    Renault has announced the special Clio Renaultsport 200 Raider, which is a limited series of the famous hot hatchback. It comes with a lot of extra equipment over the standard Renaultsport version on which it is based. Clio Renaultsport 200 Raider will be limited to just 50 cars specially for the UK market.

    The car is finished in either matt Stealth Grey or Diavolo Red. The main colour is contrasted by a gloss black finish to the roof, rear spoiler, F1-style front blade, rear diffuser and door mirrors.  This gloss black finish is also applied to the 18” ‘Interlagos’ alloy wheels

    The rims are wrapped in Bridgestone RE 050A tyres, as used on the record-breaking Megane Renaultsport 265 Trophy.

    Naturally, the acclaimed Cup chassis is standard featuring a lower ride height, stiffer springs and dampers, quicker steering ratio and red finish to the Brembo brake callipers.  The exterior finish is rounded off by extra-tinted rear side and tailgate windows and a Raider badge.

    The interior boasts leather Recaro seats, zinc grey finish to the centre console and fascia inserts. There are also a white rev counter, bluetooth, USB connectivity, automatic climate control and Renaultsport carpet mats.

    A numbered plate identifies the number in the 50 production run. The Clio Renaultsport 200 Raider will be available to order from the end of October. Price list is not announced, yet!
