    Not sure about E36, but Clios are not great until you modify them and that's expensive.

    I'd have to say e36 purely because I've driven a clio 182 and I thought it was total pish. Had to be absolutely thrashed to get it to move and even then didn't feel quick.

    I disagree, revving the tits off an N/A is the whole point and i think there a good all round car. I'd have one for a track car any day.

    Bmw's on the other hand lack power for the displacement, ive always been disapointed when ive driven them.

    I'm not disputing that part what I'm saying is I was totally unimpressed with the Clio. After people saying how quick they were i was more than disappointed after driving one.

    I say a Clio 172/182. My mate has an E36 and it's just a disappointment.
