  1. Hi all,

    sure I am going to regret this, but I just need a bigger car for a few years to make it easier for university trips etc. can’t sell the missus’s car as the kids just passed their tests so use that adhoc. Can’t really justify 3 cars as I work from home and the wife walks to work, so the Megane unfortunately needs to go.

    photos are here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/moMFTTAa24SS6t6v7 but I can email them if needed.

    Car has been great. Annual service isn’t due till January but I gave it an interim pre-sale service, today with oil change and some new high carbon front discs and an under wheel arch clean. Comes up pretty good as in the pics.

    Car is on about 88800 miles.

    Car has:
    New coil packs, new spark plugs, new crank sensor and 630 cc injectors. Remapped by Engine Dynamics to 280bhp and 280 torques. Only run on Shell V power.

    Last year car had a full front suspension refresh, with new swivel bearings, shocks, Eibach Pro lowering springs (as Renault had discontinued standard springs), though they only lower the ride height a little, new anti-twist links, drop links, tie rods, hub nuts, top mounts, aftermarket wishbones (that look identical to OEM), new bushes etc. Also had the rear beam painted with new power flex rear bush and new Eibach Pro springs and new dampers.

    Car has the battery relocated to the boot and one of Matte’s ECU kits that enables a ram air cone filter to be located behind the passenger headlamp.
    Car also has:
    Miltec cat back exhaust
    Airtec intercooler
    Pro Perfekt recirculation valve
    Forge sensor brackets
    OEM Renault Clio side skirts
    Front and rear Maxton Design splitters
    Carbon skinned door handles
    Carbon door bullets,
    Heko wind deflectors
    Wheels re-powder coated black - no kerbing
    Renault R26R boot spoiler
    R26R single mass flywheel and clutch fitted by Engine Dynamics
    KTR braided brake lines
    Double din radio that can play cd and dvd, usb input as well as a rear view camera
    Lighter socket changed for one with twin usb, and another usb twin socket in the centre console
    LED Fog lights with DRL included
    Carbon covers for the headlamp washer delete, with R26R smaller washer bottle
    Renault Sport graphic on windscreen and R26R style graphics
    Carbon effect Diamond Performance diamond front and rear covers and carbon dipped wheel centres.

    Car is in very good condition. It has a few stone chips/marks as expected for a 2007 car but still looks great and nothing needs to be done but to enjoy it, before I have second thoughts.

    £8250 Ono.

    pm me if you want any more info, photos, tel number.
    Thanks for looking.

  2. Car also had a brand new gear shift actuator with short shift last year from KTR.
     
  3. You forget all the things you do to these cars. It also has mr. Pink brake pins, new stainless steel brake nipples, swivel bearing bolts with the grease nipples, engine/gearbox mounts with yellow Powerflex inserts, replaced ultrasonic sensors for the alarm, LED interior and number plate lights, replaced B-pillar and rear bumper trims as they had gone grey. Renault also replaced the window motors and wiring when I bought it about 6 years ago.
    Front tyres are new this year with Goodyear asymmetric 6, rears are still Goodyear F1 super sports.
     
  4. Car is having an early MOT on 10 Oct so will come with 12 months MOT. Car is also having a full cambelt kit change on 12 Oct at Ren7Oaks, so peace of mind for another 5 years.

  18. Likewise. Sad to see it go. Next car is definitely not going to be exciting, but hopefully back in something more “driver’s car” in a year or two.
