Description:

This is probably one of the quickest naturally aspirated Clio's in the country, despite not having the £10k+ PMS engine, it is more than capable of competing with them owing to it's aggressive suspension set up. Both of the pole positions were taken at Brands Hatch, a circuit which really suits this car. This year pole position was a 53.901 which was half a second quicker than the next Clio. On track days I have overtaken cars easily 10-20x the price.

Full spec is below, but a brief history. The car was purchased track-day prepped, but the seat was out of date and the harness was not suitable for HANS, and there was no cage. So the car was sent to Mark Fish Motorsport where he completed the installation of all of the safety equipment - Safety Devices cage, Lifeline extinguisher, and CARTEK battery isolator. Since then, it has been meticulously maintained by Alex White at AWMotorworks, where the engine was also built at the start of 2020. The engine has been fully inspected before the start of each season and has only gotten stronger with age, currently putting out 218hp at the flywheel with a weight of 975kg with a full tank it makes for an excellent race car. I have a folder with stacks of receipts totalling in the tens of thousands over the years.
