I BOUGHT A RENAULT CLIO RS! 

New here? Hit subscribe for a new video every Wednesday and Sunday at 6pm 💥

That's got a lot of stickers on it that aren't standard. The turbo on the sides, the RenaultSport on the drls, on the dash. The front bumper insert would have been silver front factory. The exhaust sounds like its got a resonater delete. If you press and hold the RS Drive button it will go in to RACE mode, this will not auto change gear for you, allowing you to hit the limiter, turn the traction and esc off. If you pull back both paddle shifters it will allow launch control. The ac will take a lot of the power from the engine, so if you do draggy times with launch and no ac, you may find that time drops a lot. I had a 65 plate lux in flame red. Beautiful colour. The later 2015 cars were improved on spec, but the facelift cars were the best, overall quality improvements, faster gearbox, better lights to name just a few things. Hugely impressive cars, especially in the right hands on a track. Great to see one on the channel. 👍🏼

Need to make sure it’s been put in Race mode.. has 3 modes, Normal, Sport and then Race.. move the gear lever over to manual, and hold the RS button for 5 seconds, it turns full manual and changes gear super quick, and drivers completely differently. Also, launch control, hold both paddles and brake and throttle and it flies off.

Renault sports always puts a smile on your face, proper drivers car

I remember when I was slightly younger seeing Clio 182’s about, lovely motors

Love the fact you put your foot down in this video, CCD and LLF.. Can't wait to see the S2k Video. Love hondas!

Calvin you videos are so much better than the rest of the U.K. Car you tubers never change the format bro! And you totally deserve the likes

For faster shifts, he would need to switch to race mode. Car also has launch control. And it does share a similar gearbox to the 4c as they both use a dry clutch gearbox

First video of yours I watched about the clio rs200. I'm looking at buying a rs220 trophy. Your opinion of it just made me feel more positive about the DSG gearbox. I love your relaxed be yourself manner of car critic. Including your little mistakes. Just makes you more down to earth and someone I can relate to. Don't change a thing. Well done. Shane from Australia.

Light weight, dual clutch trans, and a Japanese engine (same engine in the Juke Nismo) with the right set of tyres on these hound other drivers in the lanes. The 220 trophy is the one you'd want though if you were buying one.

Owner of a 18 plate Clio RS 220 Trophy which has a much improved gearbox from the RS 200. It's such a underrated car. Reviews didn't rate them just because they weren't manual when infact the trophy especially has a fantastic auto box, as well handling better and sounding better than any of its rivals but you don't see many about. Great car 👌🏻

I owned a black one, murdered it out all black. Proper fun car and lift off oversteer like old school hatches. Auto box was crap, but in manual was good and plenty pops and bangs. Really good underestimated car, and actually held its value very well. 👍

I've always been a fan of the RS cars, never driven one this new though... It's a shame IMHO that they dropped the manual option. I always loved how engaging the driving experience is for such a low cost when compared to the equiavlent performance from the german market.

Always loved these!

Sick video Calvin my bro just sold his Liquid yellow one the other day fast for what they are 👌🏽

Owned one of these in silver with itg induction, gfb DV valve and a stage 1 tune they handle like animals, went to the graveyard sadly was one spicy baguette

I’m not surprised at the slow time, the car felt quicker than it was due the sound and feel. But that’s ultimately what we want. Still an awesome little car and I’ve many fond memories of mine

Love this guys videos 👌🏽

Always hitting like dude. Love the content 👍

Great video Calvin! Sick Clio MK 4 RS aint it :D

calv got side tracked wit the pop n bangs (sounds mint NGL)

Oh I do love hanging out my arse on a Sunday waiting for Calvin to upload

Crazy to think this is a Clio, my first ever was a Clio the car was amazing until seven months in of ownership then the car started breaking every week after that

Thank you for doing this video!

Great little car and love the colour,exhaust note.

Love ya videos Calvin

Calvins face at 11:50 is priceless 😂

Definitely been mapped. It’s pretty nice 👌🏼

if you looked up the manual or just asked uncle Google, you would have found out the right way to set here up properly and you would have had much better and correct timing/fun and experience 😉

A RU-vid car channel that’s still not done a GR Yaris video yet! 😜

Calv. If u hold down the RS button the car will go into race mode. The car will then have a Rev limiter and it sounds amazing.

Almost like a modern day R5 GT Turbo. Feel like they are really fast. But in reality they are not. However, SOOO much fun to drive. And thats what its all about.

Awesome little car Calv 👌

I had two RS clios, the original 172, and a FF 182, were blissfully quick on a set of lights and embarrassed a lot of BMW M3/M5 owners in country roads.

That looks the part sounds like all the grunt is there. A small hatch for the man to have fun in.

ive driven a couple of these Clios at my old job, i much prefer the old 172/182 Clios. much more chuckable in the corners.

Guy at my old work had one of these aquopovic exhaust sounded mettle went like hell also

Calv, you need to try it in Race Mode, you only tried it in Normal and Sport! It becomes a different beast, ESC / traction goes fully off and the gearbox speed becomes lightning quick. Put the car into sport + manual, then press and hold the RS drive button for a few seconds to put it into Race.

The akrapovic exhaust option-makes them sound even better I had one on the rs200 trophy

Owned a 2016 (pre facelift) 220 Trophy - good fun to drive and quick enough (although not quick enough to warrant a dry dual clutch box), but a nightmare to live with day to day. Chassis is way too stiff for every day driving and commutes. Sold it after 9 months!

WTF the sound! Has someone transplanted a six cylinder under there?! 💯

Mercedes A class models come with DCT. And if you have a A200d or A220d with the 2.2 diesel they have exactly the same AMG speedshift as the A45 first gen. They even have a secret mode for 100ms shift times. And if you get the Brabus D3 tuning pack like i had, then they are only 1.2 seconds off a A45 !. Very surprising and yet still do 70mpg. Real shame Merc have killed the 2.2d as the new 2.0d is not even close.

Defo sounds like secondary cat delete as well as centre box 👍

Love renos. They’re engines etc used by so many manufacturers. Brilliant.

I thought this was a bog standard Clio from the thumbnail 🤦‍♂️😂

Exactly where I thought it'd be on the 20 - 70mph leaderboard 😂

I've got a 2018 Clio RS 220 Trophy epic little cars. GLWS!

Renault make such good handling under established cars.. Probably feels faster than it is because is plays sounds though the speakers 🔊 I think 🤔

I must be old - I remember when Clio Williams came out - 150bhp!

Beautiful car!

Yess Calv #onit as usual

good to see you bro at the bmw car show keep up the great vlogs

Thinking to buy this car,is it good for a daily car? How's the fuel economy??

What's happening with the e46 330d tourer M3 conversion ???

Love a quick clio 😍👌🏼

1.6 punto s loved mine 👊

I love my face lifted Clio RS 🤩

Seat Ibiza cupra used to have a 7 speed dsg gearbox, My 66plate Ibiza cupra has a 6 speed manual which I prefer, should you ever get one in stock would love to video with your opinion

In the next episode of diary of a car trade Calvin sweeps the m3 estate under the carpet

You need to try a well sorted mk3 rs clio

Looks and goes well but my god those paddles are laggy

I cant wait for the s2000 video

A/C on, hotter weather let it down lol

Need to get in to a 197 cup or 182 lad

Love that red.

Please also do a video on your E63 please, my dream car bro

The noise coming from back boot is that normal happen too me when driving on holes

Nice motor for the price but the interior is lacking one thing the usual black headlining being beige is not very RS is it, very strange than again we probably wouldn't of seen Calvin Lol!

Problem with this for me is...... it looks nice an normal basic clio not a Renaultsport

Am thinking about buying one tbh and I've always slagged off French cars lol

Saw u at santa pod today in the m3 hope u had sun cream on

What is the aftermarket middle diffuser called ?

Sounds a bit like an original A45

A lot of people say they are a bit like a baby a45 amg

It sounds laggy between selecting a gear on the paddle and it actually selecting the next gear.

Why is there such a delay on the gearbox?

Very good car

Sounds the business

Is that a stock exhaust?

This car is fking fast. It was literally right next to me. Its a nissan engine which is why its so fast

Is this exhaust stock?

S2000 video incoming 🙏🏾

What is the exhaust spec/manufacturer?

Hunt the Williams edition bruv

Mini God damn a45 baby

Just shows that draggy times mean nothing. I have a Clio 182 cup and it’s no where near the fastest car BUT…. It feels as f*** around the fun roads.

We need this car in America.

Would you be so kind to give me an advice ?? I am about to buy a car in the range of 20-21k/euros. I came across two cars that I really liked, one is a 2016 - Audi A5 TFSI Multitronic quattro(230hp) coupé with 63,000 km on it, full options for 21k. The other one is a completly different car, 2018 Renault Clio RS - Automatic with parking camera. (200Hp) with only 24,500km on it. Both cars fully inspected in their respective brands with 1 year warranty. Which one would you go for ? I don't have any children and no debt.

Needs to be a Cup if you buy an RS in my opinion. The Megane you had on the channel wasn't so youd be even more impressed with a Cup!

Not standard exhaust though

Sort out your subtitles man!

dsg farts lol wow great video calvin

Seems good but is well over stickered....

When you have the a/c on it slows down the car

I'm guessing the car you brought for Wednesday is a honda s2000

I buy for my dotter 220 Trophy Turbo

I bought a Cleo rs aswell 😃 mine is in that yellow colour

A Clio 182 in blue with a white stripe.....

Calvin are these any good? Would like to see some more sports cars

I ordered onit stickers on the 12th of may and they still haven’t been dispatched. Have emailed a few times.
