I drove the latest Clio RS a couple of weeks ago.
Handled really well, felt pretty quick, brakes were strong.
I found the gearbox to be a bit clunky and slow to be honest. The interior was a little strange too.. very simple but cheap feeling (bar the steering wheel and paddles).
I'd say go for one if you can live with the gearbox/interior, and can find one for the right $
