The thing you forget about the Megane is .... they have done a WHOLE series of upgrades (slightly more power, cup suspension, better brakes, better tyres, LSD (and some new stickers hahaha) ... in order to beat the GTI (a major competitor).
It's taken them almost 3 years to get where a STOCK GTI has always been !!! :biggrin:
Having driven a 225 and 225 Cup - they are a blast, but "refinement" what's that?, Quality interior - what's that?, the ordinary 225 had the MOST terrible understeer, super light steering and the face & arse only a mother could love. :barf: (anyone say Nissan Tiida :bellyroll: ).
So Renault keep rolling out "special eds" (cup, R26 etc etc) - to try and get in front ... what has the GTI done ??? (other than LC and the very limited 30th anniversary ed - sans tacky stickers). I know which one will hold it's value and won't fall apart.
