    Anyone who has owned a renaultsport will know exactly what this vid is about. For the money you can't get any other car in my opinion that will keep you smiling the way theses cars do. I currently own a 172 cup a 197 and a megane 275 trophy and have absolutely no intention of selling them.any time soon. All very capable cars on track too.

The car is so much fun to drive and slide around with all the weight on the rear wheels! And being 2m tall, it's also one of the hardest cars to drive!

    My first car was a black Clio 1.4 RT 1992 (J plate) purchased in 1998 with about 55k miles on. Spent about £2k on audio equipment. Blew the engine up, probably because I didn't know about oil changes and services. Replaced the engine and kept it going. Replaced it with...a 1992 (J) 16v in 447 Sport blue. Basically a Williams light. I still think it's the most chuckable car I've ever driven. Mainly because it was cheap at the time so no fear. Replaced with much faster and more powerful cars over the years but none of them really touched that Valver for its ability to be thrown at a corner with no fear of problems.

    Wow, what a fantastic collection. I love the 5 GTL and the MK1 and 2 Clio's. I've owned a 5 and a few MK2 Clio's, MK2 Mégane and many other models besides. I'm fact my dad had several two so I've been brought up around these cars and remember the spider and the V6 Clio launching.
    My dad also had one of the very first Mégane Coupes in 1996 and after all these years I finally picked up my 1997 Sunflower yellow Mégane coupe, ok so it's not got the legendary F7R engine (mines a 1.6) but the car is rare these days and it does somehow feel special every time I drive it.
    You really hit the nail on the head Chris when you said Renault knew how to make the ordinary feel exotic. Back in 96 when my dad had his first coupe it turned heads everywhere and not many cars in its class could go around corners the way it did. To put things into perspective the Ford Puma was still a year or so away and the mk1 Focus around two years.

    I miss my old 172 cup. Covered 140k in it commuting and lapping the Nurburgring, never skipped a beat and was used as intended not detailed within an inch of its life. Not bad for car made of cheese, superb cars.

    So back in '91 my mum ordered a Clio RT in that colour, and at the last minute the dealer had to swap it for a tungsten one. The spec was identical, apart from the electric mirrors, so I wonder if this was originally meant to be hers, and what turned into my first car when I turned 17. Nostalgic memories.

    Love the V6. I can’t believe the prices they command these days especially given how cheap they once were.
    I loved this mental era of French cars.

  • @hughstultz7849
    @hughstultz7849 2 роки тому +3

    Good as usual from Harris. Given that the collection included the most famous and WRC winning Renault Alpine A110, it is baffling that they didn’t include current Alpine which nearly all motor journalists including Harris rave about. The earlier A610 Renault Alpine and A310 were also critically acclaimed and very elegant looking machines. Are these being saved for a later review?

      The cars featured inthe video are there because they were for sale on Collecting Cars at the time of recording. The cars you mentioned weren't in the video because they weren't for sale.

    TBH I find it quite sad when a car company pawns off its heritage collection/press fleet like this. A collection of like-new examples of significant cars just cast out into the ether. Hopefully they all go to respectful homes.

    Australia didn't get the LE 182 Trophy or the R26R. Heaps of 250-275s though which is what I rep in. Long live the manual french hot hatches... 3 door!

    I remember being offered to buy a Clio V6 for about £2K about 11 years ago and turning it down because it needed a bit of work. Now they sell for more that twenty times that 😩.
