Megane 275 trophy white or grey

Hi Matt, welcome along.

There were only 96 Trophys sold in the UK; I'm not sure on the colour split.

Given the price cut for the cup and cup-s, have you not considered these new rather than a 2nd hand Trophy?

 

I see what you mean, but I think the wheels can be changed as an option, and the Trophy residuals are surely lower because of the newer 275 models?

 

The problem of being very picky is that you massively restrict your choice and therefore your ability to buy on condition. I don't how different the interior of a Trophy is either ?

 

As above, buy on condition as the choice is limited. White is more popular just based on the numbers available.

 

Depends on how much you want one. They are out there if you are prepared to put the time in.

 

What does the Trophy have that a 275 doesn't have ?

 

Much depends on which 275 you are comparing it with. Renault's policy for constantly titting about with model designations, trim and options doesn't make comparisons easy.

 

I meant the current and soon to be discontinued 275 either in Cup S or Nav trim. Depending on options, either of them will literally equate to a Trophy, unless the Trophy has anything that they can't have (apart from stickers).

 

You have to assume the OP is looking at the older stuff, hence the hunt for a Trophy.

If you like the driving, value for money and not just bits of trim, fancy exhausts and stickers, then a 265 Cup is just as effective as a solution.

 

The snag with the Trophy Speedlines is they were an option new, so that limits choice when looking used.

 

You can get a 275 Trophy and it will have the fancy exhaust and trim, it just might not have the Speedlines (or Ohlins).

 

It's a pretty small and new market; you might be looking a while.
