I haven't driven a Clio Sport or a Mi16, but I can't imagine a Mi16 to be a great deal better than a RS Turbo,which I've had extensive experience with, and which along with the Mi16 was one of the best handling cars at the time.Originally posted by Cal
By the way I'm currently looking for a 306 GTI6 to buy at the moment._________________________________

My father had a RS for many years. The handling is nothing like as good as an Mi16. In fact his series 6 STi didn't handle as well as my Pug. I wasn't that much slower around Morgan Park in the Pug than I could get out of the STi. Obviously the difference on the straights was night and day.
Not driven one, only a 306 S16. Apparently they are amazing, but I preferred the longer wheelbase of the 405.

My RS was Understeer City. Not compared to a Falcodore or Corolla or some-such, mind you, just compared to a sweet-handling rear-driver. I don't think roadholding is quite the same thing either; the RS could be manhandled (by controlling the understeer etc) to stick in all sorts of conditions; but it felt like manhandling rather than finessing ... I've always felt a car that 'handles' does it's cornering through finesse rather than stubbornly barrelling at it & compensating for the drawbacks.Originally posted by hakosukaSoft roaders represent an excellent compromise between the needs of the hardcore 4x4 user and the convenience of a city hatchback.

Mi16's are deceptively good, a friend sold his recently, if only I'd had the room and the cash I could have taken the Clubman out of daily service but still had something fun to driveComment

Honest seller- Will read again 11!!aaAAAA+++
This is a fun car that generates smiles wherever it goes. It is not ideal for long trips unless you are a serious masochist. I did a 320km country run last year, and it was tolerable because I wore earplugs and a full-face helmet.Comment
