tbh strapping a car down like what you can see in them pics off a towing eye isnt the best. were they even strapped backwards at all?

but anyway, well done on the power results paul o grady.

Was the Clio standard? If so the rollers were over reading as you would be looking more at 165-170bhp.

why would the clio have lost 17bhp in its short life?

yep, from renault:

"The most obvious improvement is a boost from 172 bhp (124kw) to 182 bhp (131kw), but that’s not where the story ends. A revised exhaust system with two pipes that stick out with intent from the rear bumper and numerous suspension enhancements provide unbelievable levels of grip, poise and performance."

RR's should give the power at the wheels and nothing else, imo

It wont have lost it, it will be how it came out the factory. 99% of the standard 182's on Cliosport.net make less than 175bhp.
