Thanks Tim!
It wasn't just the Megane, I'm still put off by big projects because of the Impreza.
Then again I can't really compare an early 90's car to one less than a year!
Cheers bud,
I know what you mean about the chassis. Some 'spirited driving' on the right roads has certainly brought a...
Thanks mate, and your right I could easily count on one, possibly two hands how many MK4 RS Clio's I've seen since launch.
Compared to the Fiesta ST which are really common place. Maybe it's just that gearbox again that puts many people off.
Little update:
I phoned RS Tuning this morning and...
Not that I really want to be reminded of this loss, as it was without doubt the best car I'd ever owned and after so much hard work it still saddens me to this day!
Here's was my Supercharged Trophy...
If you're interested you can find the full project thread if you search:
'Rob's...
It really is, I can't wait to see what it's like out on track!
Thanks bud, I'm really pleased!
Cheers Chris, I'm a big fan of the face lift front bumper. When the dipped beams are on the RS lower lamps are illuminated constantly, and get even brighter if switched to front fogs.
The main DRL's...
Thanks for the recommendation Tim!
I've heard of them, and also another place in Basingstoke called 'TK Detailing' which I've seen his work first hand, and was very impressed.
I'm a keen detailer, but my skills compared to a professional are basic! Like you mentioned, I just want to give this...
Cheers bud,
I need more miles with the car to be able to give a more accurate review, but in all honesty from what I've experienced so far.
I don't understand why the gearbox gets so much hate when the car has been reviewed from the likes of EVO, Autocar etc.
I get that it's not going to be...
Loved the Megane Dan, and it was a cracking car.
But after all the grief I had with my Impreza and seeing a few issues other people had faced with modifying their own Megane's it put me off doing anything else to mine.
Yes mate that's the plan. Anything I do will have to be reversible, and...
Got it home this evening, and I'm over the moon!
Only driven about 50 miles, but so far I'm really impressed. The gearbox is certainly going to take some getting used to, but there's a very capable car out of the box and I can't wait to get it out on track!
It's 17 plate car, and I'm the first...
You are probably right mate, I just wasn't prepared to take the risk.
And the thought of dealing with the majority of morons. That would outweigh the decent, genuine buyers was a deciding factor!

Argh! It's too early!
In my previous post I meant the Megane was due its timing belt this year, not just a service! [emoji23]

Nope it wasn't if I'm being honest, only 3k.
However I weighed up the pros and cons of either taking a smaller amount and a straight forward transaction. Over making more money, but the possibility of more hassle and a much longer time scale before I could buy the Clio.
Another thing I wasn't...
The Megane is going at the end of this week as it's been part exchanged for a 220 Trophy.
I'm very excited, and can't wait to pick it up on Friday. I will obviously create a new thread and upload photos/info once it's safely back home.
Big thanks to @Ricardos for all his help and advice, as it...
Cracking car mate, and the grey really suits the 1*2's!
Not a fan of the black stripe on the front bumper. For me it really spoils the front end, although it's not as bad as the fake diffusers people paint onto their rear bumpers! That's just atrocious... 😂
Oulton Park is a track I...
Love it Rich!
I agree with the masses and think you'd be better off painting it all LY.
As for the wheels. Again they look awesome in white but I can't help thinking they and the car as a whole especially with that monstrous spoiler would look much better in a dark colour. Maybe anthracite? As...
Yeah I think that's the plan mate. Things are a little busy right now, but I'm hoping to go for another test drive in a couple of weeks time, and all being well a deal could be done.
Although I've been looking at ready built 17 plate cars with minimal mileage, that offer a big saving over an...
