Im thinking of getting something newer than my Valver and with the insurence of £230 a month it is hurting.
Ive found a real nice megane coupe, full s/s exhaust, induction kit, superchipped, lowered, alloys, uprated front splitter and sideskirts and evo spoiler, really nice yellow one and its the 2.0 16v F7R engine...
Not only has my insurence gone down by £50 a month, its much newer and has more luxurious attributes.
BUT : Whats the performance like? I test drive in the morning, the original factory stats say its
150bhp (same as the willy)
but 0-60 in 7.6secs same as the valver, is this car gonna be valver pace because of the mods even tho it has the weight disadvantage? The previous owner estimates about 175/180 bhp.
Any ideas on it?
