With the exception of the fact that the 19 weighs 100 kg or so more, they are EXACTLY the same... Thus the clio is marginally quicker! The williams is eeven quicker though... P

Dont forget that the R19 is longer and more streamlined than the clio. Same goes for Corsas n Tigras.

Same engines, same gearbox, but tigra is much more areodynamic.

1.4 Corsa - 112mph
1.4 Tigra - 117mph
1.6 Corsa - 119mph (sport)
1.6 Tigra - 124-5mph.

Daimo Hit the nail on the head the 19 is more aerodynamic therefore helping the car when the air pressure builds up at speed
