    Re: R26.R

    I have never been that keen on meganes but when I first saw this car my tongue nearly fell out of my mouth, it has got to be the finest cars renault has made for ages. It does have tough oppisition though the new focus rs is damn nice.

    Re: R26.R

    I think it's a great car, and was recently voted in the top few places of Evo mag's 'car of the year'. When you look what it was up against, that shows how good this car is.

    If ever a motor was to lure me from Jap to Renault Turbo world again, that would be the car...

    I think Renault must've got inspiration of wheel colour after seeing Ricardo's old white gtt running on oranges...maybe

    I have just had a look at an article in Car mag, guess what comes out top form the focus and the megane? The focus takes top honours.

    Re: R26.R

    Nice, but look at the cage. Its not even anywhere close to the roof or even tied into the B pillars. I don't know why manufacturers bother to fit cages, as if customers intend to 'race' them, when they are not even regulatory approved or even built how they should be.

    Seen one up close and personal yeaterday (black / dark red wheels) looked and sounded nice. Went really well on the bends near me

    Alas I then decided to leave him in the bat mobile and that was that goes like a big track 5

    Glad I had my track tyres back on
