Cheap low miles, sorted R26

[Danith]

No, I'm not selling mine already (for @imprezaworks and @james24785 )

This looks a decent price though and cheap in my opinion. Anyone on here?

Haha, ya dick! Just admit the Meg is gash...

Kinda wish I'd spent the extra for the R26

Its decent mate! Not as thrashable as a clio or civic but a good laugh. Can drive it like the 330 if needed (altho the Clutch is a lot stiffer and it rattles a lot more) and if i want to blow off the cobwebs I can spank it down some b roads!

 

[imprezaworks]

Cheers dude. If I was going to go for one I'd like @bill

Some absolute bargains popping up now. No way I could sell mine now, would lose loads! Will just throw more money at it ha

 

[imprezaworks]

A 265/295 r26 would be my ideal car tbfh

Very smart new windscreen won't be much.Nice colour and we'll maintained

Loads being broken. Just get an R26 box on yours?

If I keep it, I'll 100% be doing that mate. It needs it on standard power. Dread to think what it'll be like when mapped

I wished I had bought an R26 when I had my Inferno 225... There are only a few noticeable differences, but they make a big difference. As Danith says though, there are loads being broken currently as they are simply worth more in spares than as a whole car. But this in turn will push prices up of those left.

 

[Danith]

@roland rat always has one being broken!

 

[imprezaworks]

Had a 225 trophy and should have bought an r26. Pretty sure @ForceIndia was saying I should have bought an r. He was right lol

 

[Danith]

On the flip side the 225s are absolute bargains too as a base. The recaros in the R26 are w**k anyway for track

Yep they're awful. Same seats as the civic anniversary/premier? I was getting very frustrated on the last trackday in my mates civic

 

[ForceIndia]

Most seats that humans can comfortably sit in for more than 30min are crap on track. Stick a Cg lock in, job done.

Not sure you know I think the ones in the hondas are a lot better? Even tho they're still recaro trendlines, just a 'french' edition, same as the trophy clios etc ha. Ones in the atr were great.

This depresses me, was in the market for an r26 a while back but they were sky high so thought I'd put it off again, now there is loads of clean ones about like this for 5k-ish [emoji36] guaranteed as soon as the itch gets me again the price will shoot up

All the ones I were looking at were around the 7k price and I refused to buy one with any issues, one had problems with the swivel hubs which apparently was just the (sports suspension) and the other one was about 50 shades of black, I will get one eventually Ive made the mistake a few times of test driving them and I bloody love how they drive

Swivel bearings now are an easy fix. 80 quid a side. Pretty much same running costs repair wise as the clios. Timing belt is probably cheaper as there's no dephaser. Maybe tyres cost a bit more and they use a bit more fuel.

 

[Danith]

In fact the bearings can be regreased so might not need replacing. Got the modified grease bolts on mine now so they can be maintained rather than replaced through drying out

 

[K_McDermott]

Nice to know mate will keep that in mind [emoji106]
