[one_eight_two]

how many roughly in the uk are there? might be a stupid question but im interested coz in the isle of man there is only 2 that i can think of and they both are on here..... and wen i was in scotland in june i seen 1 in ma 2 weeks there....so are they as common as i thought or not?? thanks

Guess its not the most popular colour, seen a lot of silver and black/gold. I've never seen another racing blue in South London/ Surrey.

Wouldn't have a clue on actual numbers though.

 

[DebV6]

433 iirc, which is less than Trophys! :rasp:

one here, best colour !!!

 

[Peperami]

Hmmm. Someone post a pic of their full fat cupped racing blue with stripes please!

Preferably gleaming in the sunlight after just being cleaned or similar.

 

[ja.jack]

The reason I bought it.

Oh, can I not post a pic of mine without the stripes then?

 

[Bjorn]

You lot all sans stripes then?

My missus has one, she lives in Surrey!!

RenaultSports aren't that common in general especially when you look at some of the rarer coloured ones.

Apparently there were just over 1500 phase 1 Megane 225s so if you narrow down the colours there were certain ones far rarer than the Clio Trophy. As far as I'm aware the Megane 225 Cup (phase 1) has only sold about 50 in the UK!!!

Go on then, show us what you've got...

This thread is nothing without pictures!

 

[DebV6]

Yay, lol! My car wants to be an ASW!

 

[Alex_225]

Here's my GF's one, with my Megane sneaking in there!! lol

 

[DebV6]

Love them pics, the two best colours too!

 

[Peperami]

Awesome, cheers deb and alex! Was gonna get a black on, but think blue may be the way to go...

 

[Alex_225]

I personally think that 'Inferno' is the Megane 225's colour in the same way that silver is the 172s colour and I reckon racing blue is the colour of the 182s or at least the 182 Cups!!!

If that makes sense, ya know the colour its known for!?!?!

 

[DebV6]

I know exactly what you mean Alex, my thoughts about them too! That's partly why I wanted the Racing blue, as it's just the 182 colour.

 

[Bjorn]

Seems to be only ladies who own the racing blue, should i be thinking of a colour change??

 

[DebV6]

It's not only the ladies, only me! And Alexs GF!

 

[Alex_225]

Don't worry about that mate, I drive it plenty and I don't feel any less manly!! haha. Especially when I whip some BMW driving tw*t at the lights!!! lol

My gf turned round to me when I first got my Megane and said 'its not a very manly colour!'!!! I'll have you know that 'Inferno' is THE colour thank you very much.

The Focus ST orange...........thats a bent colour!! lol

 

[Jay]

(edit: this was taken before i fitted my sportlines, looks on stilts in this pic and there was me thinking that the sportlines didn't make much difference)

Racing Blue = best colour.

 

[jambo]

racing blue on the 182 is the best looking colour

 

[Chili Red]

I love these racing blue threads, we seem to be the most asw of the whole lot! I still love looking at everyones pics though!

I do as well! I still see everyone else's racing blue 182s and think "ooh nice colour" lol

[trailerparktrev]

Yeh, 433 Cups in Racing Blue and 64 in Inferno. Rarer than the Trophy.

 

[Acejon]

Rarer than an Ottoman Blue FF 182?......

 

[Bjorn]

So how many FF's are there in racing blue?

 

[one_eight_two]

how do u no there is 433? where did u get that info from? how mnay Cups and FFs are there?

 

[Mwindow]

This is defo the colour I'm going to go for once I've got a house sorted. Photo's just don't do it justice. I love seeing it just as it starts to go dark. It looks totally different, almost purple.
