Well...
Having decided that it was time to part ways with the Clio a few months back I set up looking at other options. Everything from Octavia VRS Estates to a BMW 140i and everything in between was considered. In the end I decided it’s better the devil you know!
Since selling my 265 Cup just over 18 months ago and missing it ever since I knew I would love another Megane. Initially I considered something a bit older...think pre facelift and 2010 or thereabouts and was very close to buying a Glacier White 250 Cup but something just didn’t seem ‘right’.
This brings me to this particular car. It’s a guy I have spoken to on and off for a few years and have been following his updates on this and past cars on Instagram. He is hugely into Renaultsports (makes two of us ) and massively into detailing. He first messaged me in August, after seeing on Facebook that I was keen on another Megane, saying he would be changing in 2019 to the new Megane 300 Trophy.
Anyway we spoke on and off until a figure was agreed and deposit placed in November.
Some spec;
2016 Flame Red Megane 275 Cup-S with just 8,500 miles
LSD
Factory Titanium Akrapovic
Full leather Recaro Sportster CS
R Link Multimedia System
RS Monitor
Reversing Camera
Alcantara Steering Wheel
Renaultsport Aluminium Gear Knob
The only photos I have of the car are from the owners Instagram. I’ve taken the best ones which really show off the paint colour - personally I think it’s a fantastic colour!
This photo really shows off the paint in the sun as opposed to artificial light;
I have already bought the optional extra Speedline ‘Turini’ in 19 inch to go on. It currently has the 18 inch ‘Tibor’ wheels fitted. Other than that my plans are to keep the car half as clean as it currently is! The owner is an official product tester for a few companies including local company ‘Mynt Automotive’ and I am fully expecting to pick up the car with paintwork better than factory!
Travel etc is booked for 25th of January and I honestly can’t wait to pick the car up!
