CAR review: Renaultsport’s Twingo 133 Cup 2009

Renaults1RenaultsportTwingo133Cup2009Renaultsport does a very good job in hatches, the outgoing of Renault R26R is amazing, the Clio 200 is also brilliant, Now have a new Renaultsport Twingo’s 133, the Cup. Let’s see how’s the performance.

However, I already can standardize the Renault Twingo 133 Cup Renaultsport Twingo chassis, what is new we can expect?

Pen and paper ready, because things get a bit more complex. You have 12,495 pounds on a regular basis can buy a small Renaultsport Twingo’s 133, but there is also a cup of chassis options. For £ 650 it increased by 10% stiffer springs and shock absorbers, reducing the 4 mm body height, and an increase of 17-inch wheels and tires instead of the regular 16.

This is the same set Renaultsport has Creole, standardization, and allows you to regular 200, and then choose the enhanced chassis for the World Cup things. However, in Clio 200 There is also a reducing (cheap) options for Clio Cup. Now Beauty line is following suit.

New Beauty Line Cup to keep Cup chassis settings, but to replace the standard rear seats slide back for a while went to the air-conditioning, auto lights and tinted rear windows.
The result is …

Renault7RenaultsportTwingo133Cup2009Renaults Twingo 133 Cup 2009 layoffs in the device 10 to reduce the company’s kerbweight, you will get rid of in the hot summer day a few pounds of their own, there was no air conditioning cooling you.

However, no air, people can benefit from energy-saving is your own can save a few pounds. New Beauty Line cup cost £ 11,795, which means that it’s 700 pounds more than the basic Renaultsport Twingo’s cheaper, £ 1300 less than a cup equipped cars, although it retains the latter’s chassis.

Shell out another £ 150, you can have a white paint, coupled with gloss black mirrors, spoiler, and our test car bumper decoration, and another 175 pounds net what you mean forward-looking Black wheels.

Renault Clio 2009 On Sale this Summer

 Renault Clio 2009

Price starting from: £10,000 (est)

On Sale: Summer

Why so Great ? Refinement, comfor, space, safety

Renault used to make a lot of noise about some of its models shakin’ their asses, but the next-generation Clio is more likely to be shouting about its distinctive nose.

Early images suggest the car will have a dramatically altered front end,making it far more distinctive and greatly improving its Euro NCAP pedestrian safety rating, which is seen as an important area in attracting sales. Interior updates are likely to be limited to new materials and its unclear yet whether Renault Clio 2009 will add two-way steering wheel adjustment and soft-touch dash plastics to all models, rather than just higher-specification versions, as at present.

The latest engine range is expected to include upgrade versions of the 1.5 litre diesels and possibly the new 128bhp 1.4 petrol that is makeing its debut in the latest Megane.

Renault Megane Coupe Concept stuns Geneva

It might seem just a concept and for now that’s exactely what it is but Renault Megane Coupe will be a production model.The concept shows us the overall lines of the new model and the new range actually.The actual production model will debut at the Paris Auto Show and will most probabily replace the current model next year.Renault Megane Coupe Concept

What stikes me is the resemblance with the new Laguna.The Gulwing doors are there just to impress and to give the car a futuristic feel.The interior is also from the future and nowone can imagine it in a production model(at least not for the next 10 years anyway).Renault Megane Coupe Concept

The back reminds us that the current Megane hatchback isn’t dead yet but it shows its age.

Even though the actual car will be more down to Earth,this concept is a great feat of engineering and the guys over at Renault proved that even if they’re French,that doesn’t mean that they have to make nice and cudly cars.Good for them and I hope they keep it up.Renault Megane Coupe Concept

What were they thinking:Renault Koleos

Never before has Renault been worried of a lack of SUVs in its backyard.I mean Nissan had it all covered.But where’s money there’s a way and so the Koleos was born.With a face only a mother could love the new car seems to be designed by a very skilled…accountant.I don’t see anything that can make this car even a little bit desirable.It borrows the platform from the Nissan X-Trail having a ground clearence of 206 mm (188 mm for the turbodiesel version).The only good thing that I can say it’s that this car will be produced in Korea so let’s hope that at least it will be reliable.koleos

I could tell you about all the wonderful things you might find under this awful exterior but honestly I don’t feel like it.I’ll just say this:if you want a safe car that can get you up a hill very fast and you don’t care what everyone else will say about you then this is the car for you.I’m sure that mechanicaly this is a very good car but as long as Renault didn’t pay any attention to style I don’t feel obliget to even try to like this car.I’m sorry but the Koleos desgusts me!koleos

Renault Alpine’s comeback

Renault wants to relaunch the legendary Apline A110 model with the help of a revolutionary sportive which is ready to debut in 2010. The experience acumulated by Renault in the F1 gives the french manufacturer the posibility to dream at a performancing model able to compete with Mazda RX-8 or Nissan 350Z. The coupe will sport a supraalimented propulsor.

renault alpine

The future Alpine model was already seen testing the Nurburgring circuit, the protype being already disguised unde the body of Renault Megane coupe. The french manufacturer prepares the launch of the future sportive model and it’s full of confidence that this won’t be a failure such as Sport Spider vehicle. They gave up making this model in 1997 because of it’s weak succes.

Probably, a concept to anticipate the future Alpine is expected to debut next year at the Auto Show from Paris.
