2013 RENAULT CLIO RS 200 CUP

KEY FACTS

• This low-mileage Renault Clio RS 200 Cup is a superb example of the lauded hot hatch.
• It is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder motor, tuned to around 160kW / 217hp, paired with a six-speed manual transmission.
• Equipped with the sought-after stiffer ‘Cup’ chassis, it also has an aftermarket Akrapovic exhaust.

EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONS

• The car’s original Metallic Black paintwork has been almost entirely masked by a white satin vinyl wrap, giving it a custom appearance while also protecting the factory finish.
• Features lightweight Recaro sports seats, climate control and 18-inch black alloy wheels.
• Fitted with the Cup chassis option, it sits on stiffer, lower suspension.
• An upgraded Akrapovic exhaust has been installed along with lighter OZ Racing wheels and brand new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres. The original wheels and tyres will be included with the car.
• Sold with all original service records and books as well as two keys.

CONDITION

• Never crashed or damaged, the bodywork is in great condition, as is all of the exterior trim.
• The white satin wrap has been neatly applied and presents well. There are minor imperfections on the inside edge of the front lip. The owner notes some minor scratches and stone chips were present in the original black paint on the bonnet under the wrap.
• Inside, the car features the sought-after lightweight Recaro seats, which are pristine, while the steering wheel and gear shift show little sign of use. All of the secondary trim around the dashboard and door cards is also in great shape.
• The Clio has been well maintained, is mechanically sound and presents no electrical errors or warnings.

SERVICE HISTORY

• Both the current and previous owner ensured the car was regularly serviced.
• Future-Tech’s car service centre carried out a service on the car in February 2021 at 35,680 km, changing engine and gearbox oil.
• In February 2019, Future-Tech carried out a minor service at 30,483 km, renewing the oil and filter.
• The cam belt was replaced less than 2,000 km ago.
• Service invoices and history paperwork will be included in the sale.

SUMMARY

This is a remarkably well-presented Renault Clio RS 200 Cup, described by the owner as the best front-wheel drive hot hatch since the Peugeot 205 GTI. In great condition and boasting a tuneful Akrapovic exhaust to enhance the driving experience, this is a practical and exciting car that will delight its next owner whenever they get behind the wheel.
