Good news! Contrary to previous reports, the Renault Sport Clio RS18 special edition is coming to the UK. Bad news! It"s not related to the madcap, Megane-engined Clio RS16. Based on the more powerful, harder cored Clio 220 Trophy, you get 220bhp, 0-62mph in 6.6sec and a 146mph top speed. Reasonably senior stuff. A paddleshift automatic gearbox is fitted whether you like it or not. Luddites like us will still moan there"s no manual. To the Trophy, it adds a unique black"n"yellow colour scheme, much Alcantara and the rortier Akrapovic exhaust system. There are many decals, including some on the roof for easy police helicopter detection.
