Gearing up a for a new hot-hatch? Train your sights on the Renault Clio R.S. 200. Buy one by December 31, and you’ll enjoy complimentary entry to all Renault Sport trackdays in 2015. Renault, as you know, is the only carmaker in Malaysia to have fully-sponsored trackdays at the Sepang circuit. Since 2011, Renault has completed 18 trackdays for its customers, which speaks volume of its commitment to the R.S. brand.

You’ll get plenty of track experience for sure, as the Clio R.S. 200 has the potential to lap the circuit in just 2 minutes and 48 seconds. That’s within five seconds of the Megane R.S. 250 Cup’s time, and in stock standard form too, it must be added. You can watch a video of the hot lap above to see it in action. An event regular even took delivery of a new Clio R.S. to complete in last Sunday’s TimetoAttack.

The latest hot Clio has a turbocharged 1.6 litre engine that produces 200 hp and 240 Nm of torque. It can get to 100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, on to a top speed of 230 km/h. Performance aside, it also gets the R.S. Monitor 2.0 as standard – the most advanced on-board telemetry system in a production car today. The system allows you to datalog your laps around Sepang (braking and acceleration points, boost pressure, oil temp, etc.) for later scrutiny.

If any of this tickles your fancy, you’ll be happy to know that the hot-hatch is now offered with a special 0% interest financing package worth RM12,000 – available until December 31. As always, the Clio R.S. comes with a reassuring three-year/100,000 km warranty for a peaceful ownership experience.
