Oh man, you've got a nice car there beefy.

My wife reckons she can stop me buying one.. But I don't know about that. Would be a stark difference from the cars I have been looking at though.

Dunno mate....the new one has really big shoes to fill.

Still glad I went with the Clio RS Cup in the meantime, what will be funny is it will probably end up sharing the same powertrain.

RWD though.

As the young lads on facebook say Nissan isn't putting it into production, but the you read elsewhere and they say its part of the 5yr plan with a likely 2017 release. I won't hold my breath but I'm hopeful.

As I mentioned before though, stark difference to the cars I've been looking at. Plan is actually for a either a CLA250 or CLA45 in the next 18 months.

It's a Damn shame they aren't releasing it, it wouldn't take long to reach cult status

RWD though.

Yep, a proper 6 speed mated to the M5M = winning.

The Clio RS Monaco in Europe is now at 165kw from the same M5M with a revised turbo.
