Excuse my ignorance guys but thought I would ask anyway.
Are the RS 250's actually offically out now then? Looking on the forum I can see that some of you lucky individuals already have yours but I didnt think they were 'on the road' so to speak yet?
I know you've have been able to order them since late last year but just wondered why some are still waiting for theirs. (most of which have been given a date of March?)
Or is it purly down to when you ordered it, the backlog of orders and the spec you ordered??
Thanks (probably answered my own question there but still lol)

They are available.
The reason why some have them is that Renault basically built a bulk load of them with various specs. So those that have got them have just gone into a show room and bought it, not actually speccing up what they want, unless the car that is in the showroom has the spec and colour they want.
Those like me that have ordered their car last month are having them custom built to the spec, colour etc that we want, which is how the Renault Sports usually work.

Id be suprised if Renault UK did. I know when the Twingo was launched, they were very strict on when they could go out on the road. They monitor these forums anyhow, so i guess they'll take it up with the dealer if they feel fit.
