I went from a 197 cup to a leon! Ive had it about 6 months and I love it! Completely different to the 197, dosent handle a good, but....... Alot better on fuel, tuning possibilities are endless compared to the Clio (£1500-£2000 will see around 350bhp) it's just an all round nicer place to be!

Have you driven one yet?

I went from a Leon FR to a Clio 200. I kept the 200 less than 2 months.

Moving to the 200 was theeeee stupidest thing I've ever done! lol

No comparison really, ive had the Clio 200 and Megane R26. Trouble is with the clio it sounds like it needs another gear on the motorway, build quality it has to be Seat all day. Reno are so piss poor when it comes to this area. I would never go back to that brand, shame really, the cars are excellent, just a shame they fall apart.

what sort of mpg would I be looking at? Better than the average 24mpg I get from the Clio?

I have a friend with a clio 197 cup, he had a 170 cup before that and the 170 was quicker. Comfort and handling wise nice car, but not leaving the leon for. He's had his 4 months and is getting rid.
