RENAULT CLIO RS GORDINI CLEARED FOR MAY DEBUT



Renault South Africa promises to introduce the new Clio RS Gordini here in May. The car joins another Gordini model, the Twingo RS Gordini, which was launched in October last year. The launch event will take place at the 2011 Knysna Hillclimb that happens between the 21st and 22nd May.


Clio RS Gordini keeps the same normally aspirated 2.0-litre engine with 148kW and 215Nm of torque. What makes it special are kit pieces such as the Malta Blue metallic paintwork with twin racing stripes running over the bonnet, a new front bumper with gloss black finish, white mirrors and 17-inch Gordini alloy wheels.

The interior is also peppered with Gordini stuff like a special blue gear lever, a blue steering wheels and black gloss finish for areas like the fascia inserts and air vent surrounds.
