Anybody got any idea about how to price a Meglio? Based on a 200 Cup with the sought after Recaros and an R26 diff added. Does need some bits doing, the engine mounts have gone so need replacing and it's got the usual little car park dings a 12/13 year old car gets but nothing serious.

Nice little official Renaultsport video here with Laurent Hurgon talking about the RS line (he developed all of the Megane range apparently!) with the not being sold in the UK RS Megane Ultime :rolleyes: (which is shown in the video).

Back in a RS Clio again :)

My 182 was one of the best performance bargains I've ever had. Bought it at £1k, enjoyed it and sold it for £2k :) Even stood in at a Noble owners carlimits day when my Noble alternator packed in and held its own massively even if the brakes smelt horrendous at the end of it :D

Time will tell if the 197 will be as fun :D Excuse the filthy pictures, was pouring down on the way home yesterday...

On a side note, if anyone can help identify the wheels that would be appreciated :D Centre caps are Megane RS I believe? They're fitted with massive chonking spacers which feel excessive (I imagine torn arch liner you can see is probably related)

@GhostWK They look like the Silverstone alloys (from the Laguna irrc). Also, looks like the previous (or before that) owner fitted the 200 rear diffuser.

I'm in a Megane 300 Trophy, and I really miss my 200.

Ah spot on thank you! :)

Yeah I actually think its had a light tap on the rear at some point which would probably explain the rear diffuser being the 200 one & the rear lights being non renaultsport ones, will take the bumper off at some point to check it out. HPI clear but just a couple of bits I'm not convinced on. I actually gave the car a miss because of it but the chap got back in touch and offered me an extra £1k off as he agreed it looked like it probably had been in a little bump.

Wheels are et50 (now I know what they are :D) and have huge spacers fitted - that compares to et68 or something of the stock wheels.... am expecting they're bolt on spacers and when I get 5 mins I'll take them off and see how the wheels look without as they should still fill the arches better than standard wheels but without scrubbing when turning the wheel. Plus that's probably another £100 odd back off what it owes me :)

With great sadness I have parted with the RS300 Trophy.

I enjoyed my time with it, but decided to move it along. Great car, and I imagine they will appreciate quite nicely in time
