My wife works at James Cook and I've probably picked her up when her car has been off the road in the past. Won't of been in the last two months though as the Meg is sat on my drive Sorn.
The Megane R26 is quicker in a straight line but not by a great deal until you hit three figures then the difference is quite noticeable as people have said. However the the Meganes trump card is the ability to carry speed out of corners that will shame most machinery with a lot more power. You...
Just a simple Stage 1 upgrade will see 270 Bhp. Like somebody said three figure speeds are too easy and speeds achievable through the twistys defy the laws of physics. Great cars but be careful as they do have their faults which can be costly to fix. Pick a good one and you won't regret it...
I was on foot Jakey. Must have been another Megane you saw. First saw you in the area where the stage was which was closed off for the lights switching on! Then you drove out to the traffic lights and turned left. Car looked in lovely condition!
I was turning right not left at the lights and you were in the left hand lane. Must be getting old mistaking left from right! Your car looked very nice by the way.
I couldn't remember the plate but looked very clean. Could be yours, think it was standard. We came out of the town centre heading towards Blackburn but got stuck in the left lane at the Citroen garage and ended going up that road. It as at the end of this road where we stopped at some traffic...
Blue 04 182 Skipton yesterday 1600 time. Silver 172/182 Blackpool sea front last night with xenon lights, M55 ??? Silver 172 Blackburn today, reg started W prefix. Blue 182 Bolton today 1500 time. Then Albi 197 near Colne 1600 time today. Times approx.
RB 182 A19 heading South, turned off for Middlesbrough. Black 182 heading West A66 both around 1650 time. Then an Albi Blue
197 with cup spoiler in Darlington around 6 and a Black 172/182 in Ingleby Barwick around 1830.
They look nice with the decals, the 225 decals look better than the R26 ones in my opinion. They do a 225 F1 in Black. Only three in the UK by all accounts! Did see one for sale on Ebay a few years back, now that did look nice with Blue and Yellow stickers.
Yes not many round here! The F1 225 is not a very common car also! I've only ever seen 4 ever! There is one around Teesside which has decals on the sides additionally added by the owner, has Red wheels too! I saw one in Redcar a few weeks ago that had a few bodywork mods done but didn't get a...
I have a LY R26. I used to have a RB 197. They sound nice with middle box delete but you loose the turbo whistle. Good choice on stage 1, for me that's enough, really makes a difference without spending bucket loads of money.
My mate bought it from EH at Middlesbrough brand new. I was with him the day we went to look at it in the showroom. He drives at snails pace so the car has had an easy life. He traded it in at Acklam Car Centre last year for a 200 which he hasn't really got on with so as a second car he has...
