The Twingo RS chasing that C2 VTS is peak french awesomeness!

Qu'il fasse un swap avec un moteur de megane rs ça serait marrant

Made in trance.
The speed of this car reminds me of getting Licenses of playstation Grand Turismo 😂
Cars like that are definitely more fun to drive than cars like Golf R dsg.
@@Maro2196yes
Haha yes, no matter what you do Gold is reserved for the zen masters because power isn’t the answer 😂
☠️😂😂
@@Maro2196 And its sad so many people dont get it these days... Which is big part of the reason why all cars are so horribly boring to drive.
Because people cared about the specs and power. All the feel and connection and fun vanished, replaced by electronic/by wire everything, NVH reducing bs and heavy automatic "sports cars" which are less fun than basic commuter car from 1990s and prior. Which is ridiculous.
Most fun i ever had driving a car was underpowered Fiat 125p 1.5me which itself was a 1970s relic produced on lincese till 1991 and it had 83hp, probably less due to age and wear.
Followed by 1990 Celica GT-i(156hp) followed by ...1999 Ford Focus Ghia Zetec 2.0(130hp) and....Peugot 307sw 1.6 diesel...
Celica because it was a lovely around analogue feeling sportscar and great daily for 4 years for me giving me fun every single day.
Focus because it revved like crazy and gad nice shifter almost as good as celica, tho it didnt feel as fast due to higher seating in it.
Peugeot because it had a suprisingly nice shifter and steering.
For all the hate top gear gave them, in early 2000s they still made relatively nice driving cars, especially compared to modern lump..
Fiat was just purely mechanical hecticly fun experience, it was rattly and noisy and had heavy unassisted steering, heavy clutch and everything required force like doors to just close. It wasnt fast, but it felt amazing.
Going 50km/h in it through a forest road felt like 130km/h in a newer car. It was exciting and ecstatic to drive.
All modern cars i drove including high power audi ith kompressor V6 and dsg, feel horribly numb, i can give it one thing, it turns on and grips well, but aside of it... i feel nothing, engine may sound nice but steering wheel feel like video game wheel with no force feedback and barely any weight to it.(and light feeling steering in celica never bothered me as it still was feel full).
DSG is needlessly jerky at times where i would be both fast and perfectly smooth with a manual.
Throttle response in my current 2010s subaru is just disconnected, clutch incredibly vague thag after years of driving i dont go by feel but holding foot in certain position guestimating it still, and i still stall it on occassion, which has never happened with Celica, Peugeot or the Focus.
Even i fiat it only happened once when i was learning to drive it and was backing up uphil where i had to leave it parked on that specific occassion.
Hydrokinetic(traditional) auto in older early 2000s bmw was much smoother than dsg, so it atleast worked well for being smooth.
I just wish cars were more fun ti drive no matter the speed or performance again.
Manufacturers ruined it when in the past even a delivery van was fun and in retrospect it is more fun than what we gen nowadays.
Absolutely love how the owner speaks english pretty damn good but you still get those 100% dutch vibes in the way he says things 😂
"It really doesh shlide a lot!"
With a camera in my face i was lost for words a few times haha but you get used to it😂
Even the seatbelts are orange haha
@@woute_r Yo keep being awesome! Thanks for sharing your car :)
Pretty damn well. ;)
Great reminder why they should NOT discontinue Renault Sport division.
Well, it's the customers that killed Renault Sport division. As brilliant as those cars were, they didn't generate enough revenue to justify the development of another hot hatch class engine that would comply with current and upcoming emission requirements. Renault Sport people are now a part of Alpine.
Still funny how the Twingo RS had basically a top notched Dacia Logan/Sandero 1.6L engine
People prefer to buy crap cars 😢
They haven't discontinued it exactly. Fast Renaults will have the Alpine badge from now on
@@arekb5951 It would rather say emission regulations. Sure they might continue some cars on the Alpine badge, but those will propably be some quirky electric cars (besides the A110)
I had a Twingo RS and loved it :D, very nice sounding and tail happy car even in stock form.
Brake light and beep is probably due to low brake fluid, You should definitely NOT ignore it :)
Its def the brake fluid being too low, ur right sir!
I love how on a twingo 133 they all seem to have low brake fluid lol
Yes, I think the same. Check brake fluid level!
Yep it did it on every LH bend so sensor prob on left of tank and uncovered as fluid moves right 😊
Also had one you are right it’s due to lack of brake fluid
I’ve owned a few of these cars, the beep under breaking is low brake fluid - usually just due to worn pads. - great lap :)
Was thinking the same indeed!
I absolutely love Misha treating all the cars with the same attitude, same respect. Forget about his skills, I wish I could look at "lesser" cars than my car the same :(
I am becoming a fan. :)
When you grow up with "lesser" cars, there is no lesser car, it only gets better in life.
@@zheson5-speed953 i grew up in Turkey with nothing but low power diesels and fwd family cars. I loved them a lot, but when I moved to Australia and had opportunities to earn more and live better, i got myself a Golf R, and I'm finding it hard to look back and appreciate. :/
Thanks for the response, and reminder.
Also, one speed, full speed!
It's not about how many minutes it takes to make a lap, it's about driving every car as fast as possible.
Slow car fast is a fantastic state of mind
driving a slow car fast is always better than driving a fast car slow. this was fun! nothing better than a tiny crappy little hatchback with some good bits on it ripping around the track!
Keep your brake fluid topped up… simple. I own the same car and I know that the sensor within the brake fluid container is highly sensitive - usually when you’re turning to the left at speed. Pity Renault didn’t baffle the little tank, this may have stopped the issue.
On another note: I cannot wait to come to Germany next year to take my little Twingo around the track. Thank you for another great video Misha.
Wish I'd read some comments before I left mine ..😅 said the same thing ...had same issue very annoying ..
Congrats to P5 and bringing it home safely despite the issues, Misha!
Sounds so good
Beeping is possibly low brake fluid. Happens when the level in the reservoir gets below the sensor.
I would also get Michelin Pilot Sport 3 personally.
Low brake fluid was my thought as well. Under braking, the fluid is rushing to the front, and when bouncing around it is likely enough to move whatever floating sensor in the fluid that is linked to the audible alarm.
we need to see it in dry mode whould be nice
I guess Misha wouldnt need to break 😂😂😂
The twingo sport uses a further improved Clio 2 sport base.
What are you talking about, Clio 2 RS is faster ……
Id love to see a dry lap in this car. The speed around the corners would be great to see
I wish we had more cars like this in the US. I love these little city cars, even the non-sporty ones
They don’t sell. Fiat 500s are no more because no one bought any.
@@BrodeyDoverosxThey don't sell, because are very expensive for young byers.
European automakers are idiots.
Only Usa make affordable fast Cars.
@@user-ix7vw9uj5gdoes anyone understand this?
you can easily find a Twingo RS at 5-6K euros in France.
You are wrong.
Renault just don't care about the U.S market, that's all@@user-ix7vw9uj5g
Nice lap, great chat with the owner. Hopefully he can solve the brake warning beep, possibly the sensor by the handbrake detecting it's on or an abs sensor being intermittent or brake fluid sensor/the heavy braking and steep up hill sloshed the brake fluid to the point it was just below the sensor causing the warning.
Fia WEC Fuji and Misha driving the 12 hours of nurbugring what a weekend. I missed the Jimmy driving due to being force to sleep a little but I understand that he drove excellently.
Yeah he did, and was quick too. Think he put in the fastest laps of the three of them and was pretty consistent too. Won't know for sure till they say more in later videos I suspect but think Misha had some issue with traction control not turning off fully. All fine from all of them for a first race together, it can be a lot of pressure to go quick but not wanting to bin the car too.
Misha the variety you provide is what keeps this channel special one min porsche gt3s the next clios and caddys you have to keep the spice and us all on our toes what's next! Any rally inspired cars been in your possession yet
It may have low power but it sounds pretty good, and I love the way it looks.
Low power🤣🙈
Very nice overtake on the last curve! ;-)👌
I loved my twingo 133 rs, I'm glad you got to thrash one of these around NB
The twingo II is the renault anomaly, converted my one to a rally car, so nimble and reactive i love it
Also shame that @yotah1TheModernRacer is outside of Europe, his strongly modded Twingo RS 2.0 (yup, 2.0l engine from Clio RS) was killing on Nordschleife
I did not think a Twingo RS could sound THIS good! I kinda want one tbh
I had years ago one.
And also the Stock intake Sound was really nice
This was very entertaining. Thanks Misha!
I had one of these specifically for track work. 3000 miles in 12 months on track. Great car!
Had many times lot of fun with Twingo RS’s. Such a cool thing to experience.
The brake fluid level is likely just low enough that during hard cornering and braking it trips the sensor. Also that "hand brake" light is also the low brake fluid light.
The induction noise... *drool*
Renaults love the suck, my clio 197 is the same. BOOOOOOOV 😂
It seems that the logic for the beeps could be "rear tyres are rotating at least 5% slower than the front tyres". That way you get beeps if the rear slides around even if you don't touch the brakes.
You should be top comment
4:30 This is a feature I really like on the MX-5. There is no comfort turn signal, but you can hold the lever in place instead of engaging it, so for example you could "blink" only once. I always use this to signal cars behind me that they could overtake me.
Am I crazy or don't most cars have that feature?
I down sized from a m135i LCI to a Lupo GTI a couple of years back. These little cars feel so much faster than they look.
The car sounds surprisingly good!
And the beeping, could it just be traction control? as it's often connected to ABS, so it'd beep when it'd wanna do anything or something? like with the VW UP! the trick there was basically removing the fuse for the ABS, and it'd disable the traction control, so connected in that way?
We disabled the TC before going on track just a press on a button with this car. The brake fluids were just under the sensor and that’s were the beep came from.
The hand brake pin sensor and or the piece it pushes against might just need adjusted to fix the beeping.
Other commenters wrote that it could be brake fluid level being too low and g-forces pushing the fluid to the side in the container causing the sensor to see too low fluid level.
It's pretty sad that a car with "RS" badge cannot have a two line of text on the instrument panel. Even 20 year old Passat can show simple messages such as "handbrake on" vs "brake fluid low" on the instrument panel.
I have an RS Twingo 133 here in the UK and that beeping sound isn't only for the handbrake it's an issue perhaps with braking fluid and/or the wear sensors. It needs looking at, don't let it cry wolf. I would not take this on a track with that alarm sounding.
YES I LOVE A TWINGO.
LOOK AT THOSE RIDICULOUS DOOR HANDLES!
Rear seats can even fold into the footwell for loads of room
I remember on very old twingo you could fold front passenger seat to make even more space and that was the only good thing about that otherwise horrible so called car. Kept breaking down even though there wasn't nothing special to break down, everything was fairly simple and extremely unreliable.
The owner's smiles are the best , nice little motor mate 👌🏽. 😊
Really impressive, but that beeping was annoying me as I watched the video so I can only imagine it was driving you crazy, Misha! Final battle between the Twingo and the Saxo was quite exciting too! Great video!
That's C2, not Saxo :)
@@dempsej oops, sorry about that.
@@AaronRandolphChen no problem, cheers :)
Nice lap Misha, the engine sounds almost like a VTEC from honda
The very first car I took on the Ring was a Twingo RS fom RSR Nurburg. Fun car indeed!
Why does it sound so good tho 😂
All N/A Renault RS engines sound great :)
Pretty much any naturally aspirated (not even supercharged) engine with some performance intake / ITB and not just a random loud exhaust is going to sound good.
Finally someone competent driving the car I own myself, although it did seem to me Misha couldnt quite find the right amount of gas to rev match on most shifts.
I can also confirm the rear does move a lot under braking, even on stock brakes and in the dry. I've never had that beeping though.
The power can be lacking, but you have to remember twisty backroads are where its home, not the Döttinger Höhe.
The sound of that little gnarly engine makes up for it though.
I can highly recommend the car for beginners or those that cant afford anything above 10.000 Euros.
Love the Twingo RS! It's 'too hard' for my old bones, so have some fun with a remapped GT. Still, the RS is a stunning little fun car!
Nice :D +W . it's the hand brake switch that causes the beep ?(the lever is jumping)
It's like listening to a psychopathic sewing machine. Love the little Renaults.
I also had one in the same color, i really miss that car🥲 had a lot of fun on twisty backroads and on the Nordschleife 👌🏻
I didn't had that beeping when i drove on and over its limit🤔
Nice to see a Twingo on the channel. I drive a Twingo diesel with some mods for track driving 😂
That brake sound/handbrake warning could be due to worn out pads as well. If the pads are worn out too much, the brake piston could fall out of place. You should always take the brake sounds/handbrake warning seriously!
omg the last part.... very good.
That's what I drove on the ring. Loved it.
These cars are so much fun on the back roads, very underated.
This is a fact...sadly many people wont understand until they get the chance to drive smt like this. They think that the gr yaris is the new reincarnation of these cars but its in totally another category. The vtses, the gtis...are long gone. This was the last NA track warm hatch...they say its the cheapest RS but they forgot to say that they are very rare to see on the road these days, like the clios, the few that remain are used on the track.
Im very lucky to own a germany imported twingo rs cup with AC (im from romania, ive seen only one other twingo rs here on the streets they are extremely rare around here)...didnt need any modifications since i drive it on the public roads, but i got me some ns2rs and an intake and it has been a few years but i cant see myself getting bored of it. I had the chance to drive other "drivers cars" (manual scirocco, corsa opc, abarth 595, nc miata) and the twingo isnt my only car but there aint no car speaking back to me like this one is. Real analog is harder to master but repays you 10fold
It sure is, it's more fun to drive a car with "little power" to the limit (without getting in to much trouble) . Than not able to use all the power of a fast car
@@dxtr3166 I drive a Twingo 1 from 2007 (it's my mom's) and it is extremely fun too! I guess it runs in the family (I have 21 years old, if the little Twingo manages to resist until I go out of home I plan on trying to transform it into a Twingo 1 RS with a little plan)
Loved the "battle" at the end, he should wire that annoying beeping speaker to a Twingo very scared light or something.
J'ai une twingo 2 RS de 2009 , c'est super cool .J'adore la puissance qu'elle dégage en 2 ème et 3 ème rapport ainsi que la tenue de route , et c'est une voiture fiable.
This beeping thing seems to me like the handbrake switch or some wire has a dodgy connection somewhere. Seems less dependent on braking rather than vibration or g-force in a certain direction to me..
Really like the intake sound. 👌🏻🇳🇱
Even more excited to take my Twingo RS to the ring next year now!
That beeping must have something to do with the switch from your handbrake. Maybe the vibrations make the car think the handbrake lever is not fully down against the center console ?
The days of Renault sport.....
Getting one in a few months for driving in the cuty, it's PERFECT for that. No need to drive the Benz in the city, the gas consumption is rediculous.
Thank you for testing ALL cars
Hi Misha, congrats to place 48 at NLS.
Overall or in the class?
@@thndrmusic8020overall, p5 in class
@@thndrmusic8020 Yep, would be a horror show to come 48th in class out of 12. lol :)
For the price of 5k I would say a really good starter car for amateur racing series, you could get something more beefier for such money, but it would most likely be an older car and in a not so good condition.
Lovely budget track tool ;)
I love my Twingo RS....BC Racing suspension,DS 2500+EBC brakes,Magnaflow exhaust...and and......very funny car❤
I think that it could go faster for example in high revs it goes down... the car is light the citroen seems to go better
Loved my RS Gordini 133
I bet it lost some power/torque because of that intake- known issue, only shock intake to a stock car.
Yes i installed the ITG intake knowing i would lose 2hp but the sound makes up for it!
@@woute_r it loses the torque too and it's way more noticeable than hp
@@mariuszmaxankazuya3170 we remapped it after the mods which it now produces 140hp and 170nm. Not sure if it was a lot more without the intake but we all know it takes hot air when the temperatures are up a bit.
@woute_r I see 👌 must agree it sound awesome with this intake through 😀
@@mariuszmaxankazuya3170 sounds amazing but if you want all of the power you could take off one of your fog lights and get a tube going to a colder place like that. 🤝
Clash of the titans 😅 i love the car, pure pleasure of driving, one can focus on skills entirely
what wheel do you have ?is it a megane steering wheel
The last part against the Citroën, awsome. YOu don't need a lot of horsepower to have fun on a race track ! Nice lap
I’d like to see you take a quirky hot hatch around, my next project car and would love to see your thoughts.
volvo C30 T5 R-Design
Hello mate. Where is this IG intake cheap to buy ? Thanks
that engine sounds great!
How many km does the engine have and what year of manufacture? when bought for €5000
Now that's a sound you wanna hear! Not loud fart can exhausts! 😁👍
One of the better reasons to go onto the Nordschleife in the rain is that there are only a few cars on that track.
Yeah Little Bomb!!Sounds Good!!
I like these cars because of the Top Gear review where they drove one upside down in a tunnel (probably used some sort of trickery to do it but whatever)
might be a puny RS, but it revs higher than pretty much every "VW" rs's :)
cant wait to take mine with her brand new swapped 225 engine in stage 3
I would actually love to see Misha drive my MR2 SW20 3SGE on the Nordschleife but I don't think I want to sit next to him. Especially in the wet, always a slippery slide. 😅
RVS brake lines - stainless steel brake lines
It is better to buy 1.2 turbo and boost it up to 140ps , it will be faster than the RS.
but it's a 1.2 turbo. People who buy the RS do so for its exotic mechanics, naturally aspirated engine, manual, short gears, high revolutions, chasis cup and low weight, that is no longer seen. not because of its speed.
In my country Clio 2 RS are cheaper actually, but people over here are mad greedy.
i must say this car was made in my town, Novo mesto, Slovenia.. guy looked on shifting stick a lot, you sure rev this poor little thing:), if it would be dry you would use it more or not mischa?
After the GT3 Cup video this video feels slow motion af
Please someone tell him to top the brake fluid up ..thats why its beeping it head off ...
12:30 M-C2 Manthey ❤
Twingo RS is a cracking first Car
Love the car. My Wind has the same 1.6 RS engine, sounds great!
Your wind sounds great? 😂
Misha is the only you tuber where I first hit like then watch the video😅
Best lap of the year 🎉
First mod would i do this thing is remove the beeper crap thingy😵💫
And takes him on the last corner 😆🙌🏽
Great job
12:00 niks om bang voor te zijn bij misha in de auto haha
Great "bip, bip" lap
Being in the USA I have never even heard of this car, looks like a fun car, too bad we never got them.
Ok next Please try to find someone with an old Toyota 86 in any tune. Or any of the celica in rwd, or gt4 pretty please with sugar on top. Thanks love ya.
this car can be so much fun, but even better as a turbo.twingo
