  1. Copied this from Meganesport.net, as it seems this is the more popular forum.

    Hi all,


    Picked this up a couple of weeks ago, over the moon so far with it. Drives really well and is by far the best handling car I've owned. Previously I've had 2 182's, 2 172 cups, a mk1 valver, vx220, S3 and i sold my TT 3.2 V6 before getting this.


    Has a few mods, Cooksport springs and a decat, it did have a backbox chop but was a bit to loud for me so went on the hunt for a standard backbox and after posting a thread on here R26.R Steve said he had one that i could have FOC so a short trip to Notts on Saturday i had a standard backbox, thanks again steve top man, and he took me out in his R26R, what a car, and it sounds so so good with the ti exhaust on.


    I believe this was a Renault press car and has been owned by a couple of people off here, so was good to see its past. I've also ordered the edition of TopGear magazine that i believe it was featured in.


    Not really got any plans for it maybe a map but its plenty fast enough for me for the moment, going to Goodwood on Sunday so shall see how it drives down there. Just got to get my private plate put on when the V5 comes through the post.


    Couple of photos


    Cheers George

  6. Lovely car mate and Steve your a star
     
  7. Cheers guys! LY was the only colour I was going to get, and looking at the previous owners it's seems like it's been looked after which is a bonus.

    Lol not far wrong Steve, it had nearly every wax and sealant available at the time on it at one stage or another, built it up to 15 layers of zaino to see if it had any effect on :smile:
