Like the mags.
Don't fall for them! Lol

They appear much bigger than they are in real life, they are just 16inch and look weird in real life. I wish Renault had continued with an updated version of the pre-facelift's 17inch Drenalic rims, those rims still stickout so well, I loved them on my Dynamique.
 
Final thoughts

Overall, this little tyke offers nice features for the buyer needing a little more oomph, but not the full shove. Its price of R264 900 (April 2017) and a 3 year/45 000km service plan makes this car quite the value proposition, considering what you’re getting. Keyless entry, rain and light sensors, hill start assist and cruise control are but some of the features that come standard in this car.

Topped off by its good looks and fun personality, this is the perfect fit between the Clio Dynamique and the Clio RS. With downsizing and budget cuts being a hot topic lately and whilst hot hatch prices skyrocket, lukewarm hatchbacks may be the new cool and the Renault Clio GT Line proves that. It's definitely worth a look...

That is NOT a feature, it's from the devil. First thing I did was disable it the minute I got in the car.
 
Works quite well on the Clio to be honest
Agreed!

It's a brilliant little feature. I sometimes hold the clutch in anticipation for the robot to turn Green soon (usually when on an unfamiliar road), and when I realise it ain't I move my foot to the brake, when Hill Start is active you find the brake pedal firm as the car is automatically holding itself, LOL weirdest sensation :D

I test drove the new GT-Line this morning. Awesome car with decent power but I'm not sure if I'd justify the extra cost over the 0.9...

The interior is awesome though! Seats are really nice.

22kW and 65Nm more, 0 to 100kms in less than 10secs, R20k more does not look bad to me.

Fair enough. Can't feel much of a difference though when driving the two back to back. I'd buy it for the extra features over the better engine

Surprisingly it does not seem to have many extras over the top Dynamique, just bigger wheels and a cd player, anything else?
