[richy]

has any seen the new megane Renaultsport?

its called the megane 230 renault F1 team R26

Taking a unique step in the medium-size performance hatch class, limited slip differential is included as standard. Designed as an improvement on traction control, limited slip differential technology transfers power to where it is most needed to give excellent car control. This ensures less wheelspin and greater cornering ability, while improving the overall handling of the car. 'Dark Carbon' Recaro seats as standard and a new exhaust system add even more to the feel and sound of the driving experience.

Renaultsport engineers have refined the 2.0 litre turbo-charged engine used in the Mégane F1 Team Special Edition to draw an additional five horsepower from the unit, which also provides more torque. The power is transferred to the road via specially chosen tyres, 18-inch Michelin Pilot Sport 235/40. These are the optimum for use in partnership with the new limited slip differential and within the Renaultsport range are unique to the Mégane Renaultsport 230 R26.

The Mégane Renaultsport 230 Renault F1 Team R26 comes with the exclusive option of Liquid Yellow I.D paint, which contrasts vibrantly with the red Brembo brake callipers. Mégane Renaultsport 230 R26 is also available in Ultra Blue or Ultra Red non-metallic paint and Deep Black or Mercury metallic paint. Renault F1 Team decals come as standard but can be deleted at no extra cost.




what do you all think, no heated arguments please

bet it shifts aswell

Doesnt look to bad.
Like the way it sounds like they have done alot making an extra 5bhp when it probably wasnt that much effort.

The lsd would be a good edition though.

[richy]

it only says they refined it though, but thats just a 'peak' figure shown from the looks, could have more power lower down etc

glad they have put a LSD in it though!

The main question is, Will the LSD box fit a Willy?



Mat.

Mat.

My first thoughts too.

I suppose that would be the one to start throwing engine mods money on - should be able to cope with the extra power better...

Love those decals too!

My god those cars are ****ing ugly. No amount of grunt can make up for that.
