Clio RS200

Big paddles, big wheel, big fun. The Clio’s instruments remain crystal clear, and optional Entertainment and Leather packs really lift the ambience. But scattered switchgear, fiddly and laggy infotainment, and poor night-time wheel-control illumination betray RS’S advancing years. Vinyl and piano black lift dash quality but today it seems like a dated, intrusive slab. Rear seat is more cramped than relatively large dimensions suggest. No spare, just a tyre-inflation kit. Boot volume is 300L.
