Onrus Posted 15, December 2018 Report Share Posted 15, December 2018 Hi everyone, is there a big difference between the Clio Sport 197 and the Clio Sport 200 Cup? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckovski Posted 15, December 2018 Report Share Posted 15, December 2018 Not an expert, but given no other answers are up yet, I can tell you what I remember - 197 is older, 3hp less, and I think lighter. I'm pretty sure the 197 came with cup suspension. I think there may be some differences with seats (some came with Recaro sportster CS seats) and keyless entry etc but I'm not 100% sure. I'm sure the 200 cup trophee came with bixenon lights. Sent from my CPH1879 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apple3337 Posted 15, December 2018 Report Share Posted 15, December 2018 Some 200's came with Recaro's. The only 197 that had Recaro was the R27 and they all did. 200 quicker steering rack, something like 10%. + 200 cup chassis. Stiffer than a 197. + 200 - most later ones had keyless entry, RS monitor, bluetooth for phone calls, music etc. + 200 different nose and diffuser treatment. Matter of opinion.... 200 has reach adjustment on steering wheel. + Different engine tune. Not that different IMO. + Check the specs on any car you look at carefully to see what it's got (or hasn't) Both great cars, but the 200 has the edge. Some 197's getting really cheap now. A lot of used Clio 3's have never had a belt change Allow $1100 for that. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamiec Posted 15, December 2018 Report Share Posted 15, December 2018 (edited) 200 has shorter gear ratios 1-3 18's on Red Bull 18's, matte paint and full leather Recaros on Angel & Demon Supposedly much more torque down low due to different cylinder head, different camshafts(more lift/duration) and ecu tune on 200 Projector headlights with cornering lights on some 200, not xenon though. Special trim on 200 Gordini, leather seats but not Recaro and no keyless/push button Standard rear hatch lip on Angel & Demon, Red Bull.

apple3337 Posted 18, December 2018 Report Share Posted 18, December 2018 Later 200's also have a USB slot and AUX cable input. Good luck with your search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
