@FastestLaps @Hoppelmoppel123 do you think these 4 pages should be merged?

in my optinion yes, these should also be, or atleast cominded into two pages (one for the pre-facelift and one after facelift):
https://fastestlaps.com/models/renault-clio-iii-rs-wrs-edition
https://fastestlaps.com/models/renault-clio-iii-sport-facelift
https://fastestlaps.com/models/renault-clio-rs-iii-cup

https://fastestlaps.com/models/renault-clio-rs-iii-luxe
https://fastestlaps.com/models/renault-clio-rs-sportauto-edition
cup and non-cup should be combind, the cup chassis was also available as an option for the sandard clio rs
jeremyclarkson1 3m ago @Hoppelmoppel123
the reason i think thee 4 particular pages should be merged (and why i asked) is that they were all released in 2006-2007 with exactly the same power and torque, with there only being slight changes in suspension and so on, hence the minimal to no gap on track. if the data was all in 1 page, there would be a lot of laptimes.

Do those four different models have the same: lap times, performance, weight, hp and torque? What are the differences other than name? Looks like a considerable difference in weight and lap times: https://fastestlaps.com/comparisons/srs22654ozcj

Yeah I agree cuz then there’d just be a shit ton of laptimes for two pages. @FastestLaps the 2006-2008 clio pages with 200 ps merged into one and the 2009-2012 with 201 ps should be merged into another

i recently got one of this toys a cup version, i am a big auto fan i owned over 15 cars in the last 4 years of wich i had a pug 406coupe 3.0, 2 mits 3000gt, bmw 325ci e46, vw bora v6 4motion, nissan 200sx s14a 300+bhp and many others...i can say with no regrets that i never expected to find the perfect car for my needs in the renault models, it is a great success, top car...great drivability, great powers through the revs, extreme stability on the bends at high speeds...can't wait to get it on a racing track...or on the transfagarasean road in romania!
GREATEST car for the value! i have it for 3 days now and i can tell you that i've been driving it like crazy, only got out of it to sleep and eat! i've got a 20L/100km consumption so...i am enjoying it as much as i can!
strongly recomend it to anyone! a wolf in sheep clothing

Hey that is not even the new version.
I got a phase 2 with cup chassis and that car should be much quicker then the phase 1 withouth cup chassis..
my car goes from 0-100km/h under 7 seconds and i hit a top speed at gps from 240km/h. If you look at youtube; autocar.co.uk the ford focus rs vs clio rs and megane rs, you'll see what i mean;)

I always knew that the clio3 sport was fast, but to beat the corsa opc, makes me feel like trading my 1.6 for the sport.

is that a real picture of it or a tuned version of it?? cause it looks incredibly good. and if so they should give it 300bhp carbon fiber kw suspension bigger brakes semislicks a widebody kit, interior alterations and a new color, alot better than the R26R
