Hey,
Recently saw a link to a group buy for RS tuning started by TurboRenault so thought it rude not to join in!
Where to start, recent history of cars? Are you sitting comfortably?
I had a Focus ST, which was great in a straight line, sounded incredible but was a little chavvy in orange. Then on Christmas morning a drunk driver drove in to it and disappeared in to the night. I did find them and insurance paid out.
picture taken Christmas morning..
7 months later and it was repaired and I wanted rid. My missus had an Audi A1 and I fancied a bit more luxury.
Enter Audi TT TSI Quattro.
Then one day it just wouldn't start, checked if I had a spark and fuel etc but nothing dead. Had it taken to a local engine rebuilder who informed me that the oil pump had seized (full service, one owner 40k miles?) so it was pretty FUBAR'd.
After I had it repaired I wanted rid, I'd lost all faith in it.
At this point I didn't know what I wanted, I didn't want anything VAG, I test drove an S2000 and a 350z. After a chat with a mate he mentioned a Megane RS250, I watched and read all the reviews and decided it was to be a Megane.
Enter my Megane RS250.....
More pics to follow.

0am, as they were opening up I had a nose around the cars for sale, the white track prept 250 looks a hand full. Few members of staff came to see a Blue Megane RS250 as many hadn't seen one. Greeted at Ktec by the guy behind the counter who gave me directions to Bournemouth and the keys to the courtesy car, a 15 plate Clio 1.2 my god. Comfy Clio but anything over 50mph was a struggle. After a rainy day out returned to Ktec and picked up my Megane after having the Belts, pump and stat done. I had the stat done at the same time as it seems a few Meganes around the same age are having thermostat issues.
