Hi Guys,
After a warm welcome from @andybond and seeing his thread, I have decided to start my own thread about me and the R26.

Cars previously owned:
E30 316i, E36...

My bro (big petrolhead himself) came across an article in an old EVO mag, and this is when the love affair started.....it featured a GW R26 owned by a certain member on here ;)..here's the article.....looking at the best hot hatches of the 2000s
The time has come to sell the Megane. I rarely use the car so the mileage will only slightly increase. I can take you out on a test drive, yes that's me driving!
Anyway to the car, it's pretty standard and pulls really well, has full Recaro leather and keyless entry/start as it's the Lux; here...
Going to be upgrading to the r26r clutch and ttv flywheel soon. At the same time I plan on changing the driveshaft seals, does anyone have a link to where I can get these or even a part number.
Thanks in advance

Bought my 57plate r26 almost 3 years ago, I'm the third owner and it was completely standard when I got it.

Rare as rocking horse wotsit I know, but with the ever-growing number of Megane owners on here, someone may have one/a pair gathering dust in their garage.

The Mégane Renault Sport uses double-axis strut suspension with independent steering axis at the front which is awesome yet complex. The lower swivel bearings are not...
