my inferno ph1

guess I should do a bit of on my megane… its not like i’ve owned it very long :punish.gif:

arrived at my dealership in April 2004, to go in the showroom. I sort of looked at it and thought… mmmm not sure on that, I liked the normal megane, but just didn’t get what renault had done. The clio was quite subtle with the move from the 1.4etc to the 172/182..

and then thats where it gets interesting

We PDI’d the car on the 13 April 2004, and our sales manager got told off! as none where meant to go on the road until 1st May 2004!
I was our company demo for a few months and luckly I got to drive it and started to fall in love…
By August it was on my drive for a VERY VERY good price as they had to get it off the pitch before the 54 regs came out… as they had ordered a 5dr in inferno and a 3rd in Silver… both arrived with damage! :offtopic.gif:

And thats where the affair started

She was home in Paris by September, and it seemed the French hadn’t seen many 225’s! as she was mob’d everywhere she went

Tbh, i didn’t think she was anything special! just my everyday car, that was until Renault forgot to take one to the first world series event.. I took my Turbo 2 and Naomi (mrs moggy) took the 225! she had more photo’s taken of the 225 than my turbo2!!!

she’s been fitted with a few extra’s, all genuine! towbar (don’t laugh), boot liner, boot shelf, ipod kit

since then she had shared her garage with… V6 clio, x2 Turbo 2’s, fuego turbo’s, r25 turbos, evo 6 TME, and boring cars like our scenic, discovery and N’s megane cc and x2 avantimes (if you can call them boring)

but she’s out lasted them all!
She took us to Paris when I asked Naomi to marry me
took us on our honeymoon to Paris again

took us around the 'ring in 2014, (all 3 of us… as (too much info now) but we found out Naomi was pregnant on the way home!)

but last year she had the most important job of all… Bringing Dafydd home from the hospital! the Nurses looked at me strange when I said I was off to get the car, and drove home to get “Megan the megane”

so there we have it… she’s 12 years old this year with 67k on the clock… and still going very strong with her full service history… don’t think there are many 225’s who’s owner has seen them since the day they rolled off the transporter!

You have ,had some nice Renault’s envy of you

here are a few pics of the cars she’s out lasted

Should of kept t2

should of kept both… i could clear my mortgage and buy a manor house the prices they are going for!

Yet again a clean ticket

Just need to do more than 249 miles next year
:negative.gif:

You really went bananas the year before doing 7k !

yeah!!!

it was my daily for a few months… plus a trip to the 'ring


Lovely example there mate…meet its 5-door brother! I’ve never even passed another 3-door Inferno let alone a 5-door like yours or mine.

They are out there as it was the launch colour

I will have a 5dr soon… Busy saving after buying the big cousin… Laguna 205

Plus I need a bigger garage

Only been out once this year.. To tatton park…

Really need to get some miles Onto it but works car park Is a little tight and Muppets seem to be drawn to it like magpie to silver!!!

Just about ready to give away into next April then I think a few days out as the boy will be a little older then

I’ve been shouted at for not updating this.

Nothing has really happened,

except she now has a
Black (yes black, one of 4) r25 225 f1 team
