I've got a R26, never owned a trophy but come from a Ph2 172 to the megane. Got to say it is a very good car, the low down torque compared to the 1*2's is great, but have to say if you use the torque alot dont expect the mpg to be anywhere near a trophy. Ive had quite a few nice cars and the...

Completely understand i loved the revs in the 172, but just wanted a change. dropping 2 gears to get a bit power when your not in the mood to rag it does get tiresome. think by lazy power he means its just that it all comes from low down the rev range and its like you dont have to try very...

Dont think i could spend £7k on a 10 year old car, agreed its a great car but its a lot for a car that old. Much rather have something thats only 2 year old. I came close to buying a 197 cup in white. think they look awesome, but just preferred the torque of the megane, but thats just me being...

You dont have to spend no where near £15k to get a good R26. I would save the £3k and get a R26 anyday over the BMW.

Best thing to do mate is go and have a drive of one, but i think you'll be inpressed, i took all of the medium size hot hatches out, and the R26 beat them as an all rounder hands down.

if you are meaning in stiffness, then yeah its loads stiffer no body roll in the corners at all, but it damps the big bumps and potholes brilliantly no spine shaking moments like the 172, was sure every time i hit a big bump in the clio bits fell of it ha. and the grip out of the corners with...

I've just gone from a 172 to a 230 R26 and its a great car, never driven a trophy but it is way ahead of the 172. and its quite refined too.

Thinking of upgrading from my 172 to a 197 cup or megane 230. wondering if anyone can help me decide. i like the idea of the stripped out 197 but think the 230 is a bit better to live with everyday. i've drove the 230 and it was very quick, but havent had a go of a 197 yet. im also thinking...

Thats a 182 FF as its got xenons but it has both cup packs (Spoiler pack and suspension pack). i wouldnt get a 182 unless it had both packs. If you want the toys then get a FF but just look to see it has the front splitter and the bigger rear spoiler. You can tell the suspension pack by the...

thats exactly what im looking for, can pick them up for about £250 for a decent one. but i want one that works with my cd changer too so need to look into which will work and has all the features i want.

where about are you mate, would be helpfull if buyer could collect.

well renault want £150 for these as far as i know, im not looking for as much as that, been rather keep it as a spare then give it away. just make me an offer if interested, i can only say no. :wink:

Make me an offer.

Got a Spare front splitter for sale, if anyone interested. its brand new from renault never even opened it as i already got a cf one.

I Have a Spare brand new Renault one, never been opened. Make me an offer for it.

Looks like this garage is about as good as the last one i took mine too. took mine to Evans Halshaw Renault in Durham for the cam and aux belts. couple of weeks after took it down the motorway and the arch liner start grinding off the floor. looks under the car and the passenger wheel arch liner...

it'll be the switch under the brake pedal, needs adjusting so the brake lights come on sooner when you press the pedal down, its easy to adjust. had the same problem with mine, took me a while to figure it out but ive had to problems since.

Wish i knew about this garage couple of weeks ago. had quotes from them garages too, but couldnt find no where cheap that was close to me so just had to pay stupid prices.

I would think it will be 4wd as it looks to be VW's version of Audi's S3. So should have the same 4wd system and same engine.

Spotted on saturday in evans halshaw durham when dropping my car in for belts to be changed.

where is the best place to buy the Silver visions from?

thought id read something about these tyres. i managed to find the site, it says to avoid them. http://www.readyforthetrack.co.uk/2008/ ... -some.html

Hi. im looking to take the 2.0 16V trim off the side to paint it as some of the paint is coming off. just wondering if anyone knows if this just clips off and can be cliped back on without damaging it. cheers

Just got a price for my aux belt from dealers, took ages just to get them to find the right part and to get them to understand what car i had. finally got through to them, then they tired to tell me the aux belt and the timing belt were the same thing. then when i got them to understand the...

Spot on mate. Cheers for the help ill give them a ring. says on yellow pages they are reno specialists which give you a little piece of mind that they know what there doing.

Hi. does anyone know of a specialist garage for Renault Sport cars in the north east. im after my aux belt changed and i think im going to get my cam belt done but the stealers want fortunes for the job. does anyone know a good garage to get this work done in the north east. all the garages...

Hope not, well it not my car but she borrows me it when i wont it :wink: . not arguing mate but ive always had pritty quick cars and couldnt drive anything slower now so had to do something. but when she passes her test she will be driving it more anyway then theres no probs.

I knew when i did it like this that they might into it if anything happend but she is insurered on her provisional license and i am named that i can drive the car on the policy, so what can they say and how are they going to prove that i drive it all the time and there is no limit on the policy...

Dont think theres anything they can say, the car is in her name so legally the car is her's and she's the first driver. the police have checked it when i got pulled for speeding [-X and said theres no probs. it will still be cheaper when im older then wat it is now, and i already got a couple...

Im only 19 and have a 172 ph2 and my insurance was £1800 last year but it going down to £1200 next year, checked it for a trophy next year and it £1400. I dont think its too bad and it well worth it when im only 19 and dont know any mates my age with a better or faster car. all i done to get...
