Both sold about a month ago now. Have started a new project thread here.

At the start of 2023, I decided something had to give. Two cars, a Megane R26, and a 172 Cup, was no longer a viable option - the R26 was too nice to drive and its value was all tied up in the cars low mileage, and I had taken the boosted Cup as far as I could really be bothered. Sold both...

Some may have seen that both cars are up for sale at the moment, to release money for a single-car project that I've wanted to build for some time. The Clio is priced pretty competitively https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255990326388 The Megane is priced fairly strongly, but it's difficult to really...

Have been using chatgpt for the initial drafting of email workflows and planning customer buying journeys at work. Also writing copy for e-shots. Gives a general direction of email subjects and content, but I've found you have to really steer it in the right direction and be very specific to...

The cup will be up for sale at the weekend. Will be listing a full advert on here as well as FB, eBay, the usual. The Megane will be staying and funds from the sale will be going towards another project. Whatever that may be...

Very much torn at the moment between selling one of the cars. R26 or Cup. R26 is a better car from stock, but I've spent a lot this year making the Cup good for track use. Next year I'd like to do 4 or 5 track days. In which one? I'm not sure yet. Looking back at this thread which started in...

Thank you @Brigsy @Adey. Seems pretty clear that the next step is to ensure air is flowing directly into the radiator and that secondly, I have a decent radiator setup. I'll address these first, book another day, and see how it goes. The OE ducting on the rear of the bumper is missing for...

Another update and a few more modifications have been added. Top mounts were knackered, as were the D-Bushes on the front anti-roll bar, so it made sense to powerflex and fit OEM top mounts. Everything that can be powerflexed has been, and the turn-in is brilliant. Fitted an Oil cooler in...

Thanks Dave. Incredibly clean and well looked after by the previous owner. Just weighing up options at this stage.

Any help with this? Glacier White R26 (Number 3332) Airtec intercooler Standard air box mod with ITG panel filter Rear back box removed Remapped by Engine Dynamics to 250bhp Factory fitted Black Pack (Wheels and Wing mirrors) Factory fitted Lux pack (Full leather, armrest, keyless, auto...

Managed to get some NS2R's for the Cup in R16/195 fitment for about £350 delivered online. Bargain in my eyes and loved them at Brands. Will try AR1s in the future if the budget allows.

It's been 6 months since I updated this! The car was SORN up until the start of this month, whilst it has been given a few upgrades. - Powerflex wishbones fitted - Inner/outer bushes fitted to the front anti-roll bar - brand new 280mm bracket/Brembo setup from PMS. - NS2R's all-round - very...

Sounds great @MrBlonde This is so close it would be rude not to attend. Count me in. Also got some friends who might tag along but they're not on here.

Good to see you on here Matt. Looking forward to updates. Chris

Needs a lovely OEM Cup in there, perhaps an AG 200 too. But epic all the same!

Sounds interesting! I work as part of a small marketing team and although I am more multimedia designer than I am marketer, I do get involved increasingly with 'strategy' and I am responsible for handling our social media. You are 100% correct that what's posted online should be more strategic...

Some of the 140's in here are amazing. I've aspired to own one for around 3-4 years now. The R26 has curbed the want a little, but it's still there. They seem like the ultimate daily. Prices seemed to have soared too recently, like everything else. Seems like it's hard to find a nice one sub 20K...

Audi S3 (8P) OEM - Crept past. F-Type S V6 (380BHP) - Level. OEM Yaris GR - Level. Not all that impressive considering every other car was completely standard.

Yes, probably the best bet to be fair. And no, haven't tried that but will do. Losing weight would probably help too :ROFLMAO:

I know! I am not going to worry too much. If it happens, it happens. But if I can prevent it I will!

Bolster wear…. Is there anything that can be down to limit this for now? Trying my best not to cause more wear when getting in and out of the car.

Haven't had a chance to really drive the Cup in about 3 months now. It's not as good as the Megane, but I can't bring myself to sell it at the moment. It's got its charms and I do genuinely miss driving it. The plan is to sort suspension early 2022 with the view to take the Clio on track. In...

What's even more worrying is that they have loyal fan bases and large viewerships who somehow see value in the content they upload.

@cgower Meg/Clio content & any car I can get my hands on.

I was looking on there too but found the same. Then joined a few pages on Facebook and there seemed to be a fair few coming up for grabs. Couple of nice LY’s on there recently at around 7 or just under. It was up for £8k. Strong but not ridiculous in the current climate.

Thanks mate. Was posted up for sale on the ‘Megane R26 Owners UK’ on Facebook and by chance I was the first to message the guy. Picked it up from Essex way.

So I think the Cup might be up for sale very soon. I've fallen in love with my new car. A Glacier White R26. Spec: FSH 50K miles from new Black pack from factory LUX pack including full leather/arm rest/keyless entry and auto lights. Mapped to 250BHP/280lb-ft by Andy at Engine Dynamics...

Shame. Could have stuck it up for 10K based on what I've seen at the moment!!

Cheers @imprezaworks You're not alone. I've been looking for one for a while now to run as a daily but prices have gone through the roof.
