Night and day. Much more solid feeling car. Its quicker but much more unflustered.
The Clio's are all revs and noise where as the Megane is low down torque and pull. Revs top out at 6500 ish. Its just alot more grown up.
They handle really well. Corner pretty flat with very little body roll...
Having now owned my Meg for nearly 2 weeks thought I'd start a thread to keep a history of what I do to it.
Car bought from @mossyv6.
Has had a few mods done when bought.
Scorpion decat and stainless exhaust.
Induction kit.
Stainless down pipe (not sure what, tbh)
Forge blanking plate.
Dump...
I can vouch for Lee @ FCM. He's the only one that got the Clio perfect. Pretty sure they don't do corner weighting at FCM but as mentioned he'll most likely recommend someone.
If you've never been before don't let first impressions get the better of you. They know they're stuff just not how to...
Will do. Honestly not had time to do much to it to warrant a thread. Spent most of the week getting the Cup ready for todays transaction.
Will try and get some pics up this week.
Well its sad day as I sold my Cup. I'll have another some day but had to go up a size in car so got an RS Megane 225 instead.
Bit weird seeing it go but that's life
Steady on I've not long been home and now its peeing down!
My usual first mods are cherry freshener and wiper blades...
I'm weirdly ocd about wiper blades, hates smeary blades!:D
I'm gonna let @stacky take the lead on this as I've not got the time at the moment with 4 kids and house stuff to sort.
I might not be in a Clio but it'll be French;)
Nice little starter Clio. It peevs me greatly like you say, you park your car miles from anyone and some dopey brainless r****d parks 3 inches from your door.
Some numpty in the my works car park did it to me last night. I had to crawl over the passenger seat he was that bloody close. In...
From chatting to @mossyv6 its seems a bargain. Just need to see it! Tbh I don't think all rs megane's at this price are in that condition or with the spec I've been listed.
Fair enough. I only be using 3 times a week as the 2 days I cycle to work. From the basic man maths I've done it shouldn't cost anymore to run than the cup and its a tad more practical size wise.
Just chatting to @mossyv6 about his at the moment so we'll see how that goes:D
Was looking at cupra's or s3's
The missus hates the cupra and she will be driving it very occasionally. I'm not that much of an Audi fan and s3's in my budget had moon miles on them.
