The five hundred examples of the new Renault Clio Gordini 200 which will be sold in the UK are available to order now, priced from £19,650.

Mechanically the same as the Clio Renaultsport 200 (and available with the same "Cup chassis" suspension, brake and steering upgrades as tested here), the Gordini has various styling upgrades, including Malta Blue metallic paintwork with twin white stripes which echo the colours of Gordini-tuned Renaults from past decades.

Optionally, customers can also choose between Pearl Black with white stripes or Glacier White with anthracite stripes (or any of the colours with no stripes, if preferred). Other extras include that Cup chassis at £410, wheels with blue inner rims at £100, Carminat TomTom satellite navigation at £460, rear parking sensors at £310 and a panoramic sunroof at £615.
