......and heck load of gadgets, if your really bothered about them.

Though I have a lot more interest in the Clio 197 tbh...

red

but its the f1 megane. there are 100 going to me made. cup suspension, upgraded brembro brakes. goes like stink. makes other 225s pale in comparison tbh.

looked at the new 197 while i was there. didnt have much time to crawl around it like the megane. it didnt have the presence of a normal renault sport either. something is awry with them

Serious

But it also has that ugly bum...  :(

And for the price you could have an X-type Jaguar :)

redneck

yeah but you dont get the ability to do 0-65 in 6.5 seconds. and its a f**king beautiful car.

thanks to photobucket for ruining the photos by resizing them

Serious

The original Megane was nice, this is plain butt ugly  :evil:

Actually, for that price you could get the Focus ST, which id my current fascination.

It's all fun and games until a 200' robot dinosaur shows up and trashes Neo-Tokyo... Again.

Absolutely love it...

The daft sporty decals dont add much to it, but its a fantastic looking motor.

I thought the rear looked a mess, but on the more substantial looking Meganes i.e. the sporty incarnations, it looks good, really good infact, and it goes like stink.

The Focus ST is a smart car too, but its a bit Ford(y) and well a bit stale looking for me especially the new style ones... The Megane has just the right amount of quirkiness and style (plus peformance) for me.


Jaimz

Would take the ST over that anyday!

If your bothered about money then you might as well get a V6 vectra for a grand which has pretty much the same performance, as was pointed out to me.

Yeah, but then youd be driving a Vauxhaul. Besides, it wouldnt be Electric Orange :)
