Only a couple of weeks after the UK launch of the Gordini-badged Wind roadster, and Renault's flourishing Gordini line-up is expanding with the addition of two new versions of the Clio, priced from £14,000. Up until now, only the flagship 200bhp Clio RS could be had with the Gordini package.
The new Clio Gordini is offered in Britain with a three-door body style and a choice of two engines, a 1.6-liter VVT petrol delivering 128-horses for a 0-62 mph sprint time of 9.3 seconds and a combined fuel economy of 42.2 mpg UK, and a 1.5-liter dCi turbo diesel producing 106-horses that returns 62.8 mpg UK on the combined cycle.
No matter what engine buyers opt for, the Clio Gordini is offered with a standard Glacier White body color with contrasting anthracite grey Gordini racing stripes, door mirrors and front bumper insert, plus three optional paint finishes - Malta Blue, Pearl Black and Ruby Red.
The Gordini badges, 16-inch Turini alloy wheels, a body colour rear spoiler and twin tailpipe exhausts round off the exterior package.
On the inside, the Gordini touch comes in the form of standard grey or blue cloth upholstery (grey or blue leather are optional), a leather steering wheel with grey detail and white stripe, satin chrome effect gearknob with blue Gordini badge and black surround with satin chrome gaiter lever.
Other highlights include the gloss black detailing for the centre console and dash and air vent surrounds, plus a white rev counter, while among the standard specification are a radio CD, auto lights and wipers, climate control, cruise control and front curtain airbags.
In the UK, on–the-road prices start from £14,000 for the petrol model and £14,950 for the diesel.
