For sale is my Megane R26 F1 Team.


It's a reluctant sale, however necessary to facilitate a house move. I will consider a P/X for a cheaper car. Preferably a tidy Clio 172/182/Trophy, DC2 or something similarly focussed.

* Electrics - no issue




Servicables:




12k service: Done at 55,000
New CS5s in correct 235 width fitted in May this year.


There are two negatives to note, firstly the wheels could do with a refurb. Secondly there are fairly bad stone chips along the bottom of the front bumper, and a chip in the bonnet from that appeared after the last MOT.

That's a considerable amount of car, and performance, for the money. A great all-round package, good luck with the sale!

Thanks, it certainly is.

There isn't much else you can buy for that money with 210bhp/tonne that actually handles.

I had the original blue 225 F1. Awesome car! I actually just got sick of fuelling it :(

The 225 had it's flaws in terms of suspension setup. The R26 is a completely different car :)
