    Hi guys, new owner from North Devon here.

    Only had the car for a few months but loving it so far. Got some decent tyres and brakes on the way for it already (currently the car is on some interesting Delinte DH2 tyres :astonished:)

    Some pics i took of her:

  2. Looks good that. I wasn't keen on the facelift at first, but it's growing on me a lot. Like them in white especially.

    Thanks mate, these look so much better in person for some reason.

  4. Yeah it's a funny one. When it first came out, I was really not a fan. I thought it looked a bit mismatched, as the rest of the exterior hadn't really changed. However, now I have seen a few more of them, it's grown on me a lot, to the point that, when I get another Megane (hopefully within a couple of years - Mondeo ownership is boring me already!) I will probably get a facelift instead. The new front makes the car look wider somehow, which I like a lot.

    Nice shots, Really do love the facelift now. Lowered with some better fitting wheels they look so much more aggressive than the prefacelift cars.

    They are 18" 8.5" Wide 114.3x5 in ET51. They'll be showy/daily wheels where as I stick with OEM for track.
     
  15. pics?
    They will certainly be sitting out flush with the arches.
    16mm offset difference.
    Might look a little awkward before you lower it.
