Clio owner looking to upgrade!

Discussion in 'New to the Club? Why not introduce yourself?' started by Matt W, Oct 27, 2015.

  1. Hello!
    Some of you may recognise me from the clio forums, I currently have a clio 200 and i'm looking at upgrading to a megane 250 :smile:

    Going for a test drive tomorrow, very excited!
    I'm thinking that surely the megane can't be that much quicker than the clio with the extra weight and only 50bhp more... Will report back :smile:

    Sorry, you're not allowed on here :wink:
     
  3. Will dot!
    Didn't know you were still around. Those turinis I had off you had the worst tyres in the world on them haha
     
  4. Red Clio?
     
  5. I'm not sure upgrade is correct tbh. More like sideways, depending on your view.

    Faster, more grown up, duller, more expensive, in a quick summary.

    Welcome across btw :smile:
     
  6. No beard?

    When did you have turinis off of me? Were they the white or silver ones?
     
  11. Welcome to the club, I have seen a really nice LY trophy for sale on the forum :wink:

    Found my megane is considerably faster than my ex-partners clio 197. The torque makes for great progress on the road.
    On a track I don't think it would be as clear, but on the road the much stronger mid range is great!

    Welcome over Matt, you'll love it. I drove on earlier this year. 100% my next car
     
  13. I've just came from a Clio to a Megane and would not go back now.
     
  14. its the natural progression

    I made the mistake of having a Mk5 R32 in between. That really makes you appreciate the renaultsport chassis magic...
     
  15. Welcome Matt. I love my trophy and have had 6 clios previously
     
  16. I've had a mk5 and mk4 r32 neither did anything for me unfortunately :worried:
     
  17. The anthracite ones, back in like 2011!

    Thanks :smile: Still have the Lotus?

    What megane do you have now? The silver one was my favourite MK2.

    Mk3's are hopefully better reliability wise!

    Thanks, you do love a clio haha


    I had a test drive today of a 250. Amazing in every way, the power is insane compared to my clio 200.

    Collecting saturday :smiley:

    I do for now mate!

    Get some pics up ASAP. What colour and spec?
     
  19. Oh nice. Yeah get the pics up
     
  20. I'll take some on Saturday, but it's the expensive ktec one on autotrader.
     
  21. Ktec do my head in, hoard all the decent spec meggies, are miles away, and expensive imo
     

  22. looks a beaut that fella, very very nice, perfect spec for me :smile:
     
  23. I love my 250, recaros and cup pack are all you need imo.

    Can always chuck a 250 engine in the clio anyway
