This is the good lady's daily driver- a 2001 Clio 172 exclusive.

For those who don't know, a 172 has a 2.0 16v 4cyl with variable valve tech, giving 172 brake through a 5spd manual trans, all in a 950kg 3dr box.

It runs 3000rpm at 70 in 5th, and gives circa 42+ (imp)mpg on a run, and 0-60 in 7 secs

It'll not be getting modded, as its a limited edition, but its fun to try for 400+miles from 50 L
