SaintDP 01-08-2007, 09:47:49 Love it. Had a little play with a blue one the other nite, looked well smart.
Im very tempted with one but just not sure? my Red R26 keeps calling me.
Matty 01-08-2007, 10:23:55 Love that mate dont think you will find too much different in the space, i was drivinbg our new one at the weekend and its only a little bit smaller than the meggy.

mike_d225 03-08-2007, 10:53:53 Looks smart mate, what are your plans? I know you can't leave them standard for long Craigy
Liquid R 03-08-2007, 12:47:01 Looks great Craig, like to have a closer look sometime - wonder if those Recaros would fit the Meg!
craigyR27 03-08-2007, 12:57:17 Looks smart mate, what are your plans? I know you can't leave them standard for long Craigy
yes you be right mike, even before its left the dealer it will be modded, putting the itg filter in, all my stereo and stuff from meg going in alog with the led's, have put a deposit down on the milltek exhaust and a milltek sports cat, renaultsport cup front splitter, remap, already had some custom car mats made for it, and a custom richbrook tax disc made,no outdoor cosmetics though want to keep as it should on outside.
im sure there be more to come.;)
liquid dont know if seats would fit, but they lovely really hold you in, not being biased but they better then the megs, long journeys kill ya in them found that out in my mrs clio trophy.;)
Liquid R 03-08-2007, 14:01:02 So are we all going to meet up then?
chris v6 255 03-08-2007, 20:00:43 Looks the nuts mate
Really really want a set of those Recaro Sportster CS's for my V6
andyp74199 03-08-2007, 20:21:33 looks fantastic, probably even better in the flesh
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 01:35:01 liquid r yes mate, sure it can be arranged.
also cheers chris v6 255 and andyp74199 for your comments, it does look great in the flesh, first time i seen it in the flesh in that color, and boy does it stand out, going to miss the power of my meggy and miss not having a turbo, but i do like clio's and fancied a change, one day i could be back for a meggy who knows, or a nice clio turbo be nice.
chris v6 255 04-08-2007, 10:46:41 Hopefully they will put the R26 engine & LSD in the clio....... Now that would be a car!!!!!!!!!
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 12:34:09 yes i would say, chris is that the color of your v6 in your avtar if so i love that color and that is one mean car, think that has to be still the best looking car renault have done besides mine lol. nah v6 will always be the headturner, always
good choice, if one come availble at my dealer before i got mine i would of had the v6 think they stunning.
chris v6 255 04-08-2007, 15:44:13 Yeah thats my car its called "Acid Yellow" there are only 8 in the UK in this colour.
You wouldnt believe the amount of attention it gets :)
Just a shame we got shafted with the interior :(
dave225 04-08-2007, 15:51:30 yes you be right mike, even before its left the dealer it will be modded, putting the itg filter in, all my stereo and stuff from meg going in alog with the led's, have put a deposit down on the milltek exhaust and a milltek sports cat, renaultsport cup front splitter, remap, already had some custom car mats made for it, and a custom richbrook tax disc made,no outdoor cosmetics though want to keep as it should on outside.

liquid dont know if seats would fit, but they lovely really hold you in, not being biased but they better then the megs, long journeys kill ya in them found that out in my mrs clio trophy.;)
i like the seats in the clio but the megane ones IMO are better, they are so comfortable and its the first thing people comment on when they get in the car.
I had a non stop 7 hour journey in them when i got stuck in the floods and i never once felt uncomfortable, so they are great. The clio ones seem a little hard to me and would not be as good on long journey's for me IMO.
I love the R27 though and if it had got the megane engine in it I would have got it but the turbo really is an amazing engine!
BlackRat250 04-08-2007, 16:22:36 Craig, believe me mate, you won't miss the megane as much as you think you will. ps, ive finally ordered Michelles !!!
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 18:16:30 cheers dave, yes i hope i wont miss my meggy i do love it, but time to move on, yes i see you ordered look great in red everything seem to match calipers etc and graphics looks great on them,
not many people like the graphics but i do not sure on the roof one, but keeping it as that how its supposed to look so why change it.
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 18:19:46 Yeah thats my car its called "Acid Yellow" there are only 8 in the UK in this colour.

Just a shame we got shafted with the interior :(
8 in the uk wow thats is special, looks amazing mate, and i can imagine the attention ya get.
yes as you say the interior is pants but renault are getting better in the inside.
you have a georgeous car mate, you must be very proud to own it i know i would.:sunglasses:
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 18:26:52 I love the R27 though and if it had got the megane engine in it I would have got it but the turbo really is an amazing engine!
yes i too would love the r27 to be a turbo, yes thats the only thing i will probaly miss from my meggy is the turbo and all its torque, but the handling in my phase 1 meggy is pants and be no where near the r27.
love my meggy to bits and be sad to see it go, but i just could not resist the temptation of a great offer, and to get a ltd edition car in a ltd edition color and full spec, and i never had a brand new car before so was time for a change, just hope whoever buys my car off the dealer looks after it. the same as i have looked after it.
chris v6 255 04-08-2007, 19:08:43 8 in the uk wow thats is special, looks amazing mate, and i can imagine the attention ya get.

Thanks alot mate
It is kinda special, has been my dream car for the last 5 years or so
I only ever wanted an Acid Yellow one & took me nearly a year to find the one I wanted for sale.
Only had her for a few months now & dont know what id do if we ever have to part company.
Hopefully I will keep her forever :)
Want to get the wife an R26 so hopefully I can have 2 Renaultsport Classic's in the family :D
craigyR27 04-08-2007, 19:13:46 wow you deserve it mate if that all you ever wanted and took time to find the right one, and dont blame you mate, i would keep forever too.
enjoy it, brilliant color and not likely to see many in your neighbourhood which is a bonus.
where abouts are you based would love to see it one day.
take it easy craig
