We heard many rumors about it !
A lighter Clio 2.0 16V was introduced at the Geneva Exhibition.
In France, Renault don't communicate around this serie.
But, it seems to be available since the beginning of july 2002.
Only 300 models are expecting in France.
This model is called Ragnotti in France. Jean Ragnotti is the most known
and sympathetic rally driver in France.
It will be recognized by its unique color 'bleu mondial', some new body
accessories, and Speedline rims.
Thus, the list of interior equipmentis reduced : ABS, ESP, Hifi, the
spare wheel and some other accessories of comfort disappeared.
More color, a wheel, a pommel of specific gear shift lever brighten the
interior. The seats are had specific too.
Although the rumours announced to us an engine of 190 cv DIN, no mechanical
modification is made on this version.
On the other hand, the adjustments frame were re-examined in order to
obtain a more effective car, more rigid. Almost a group N specification
!
Null doubts that this weight profit will make it possible to improve
the performances.
