Renaultsport Megane R26.R: Pic Of The Week

The evangelising will stop soon, honest

---

To the uninitiated, the Renaultsport Megane R26.R looks like what one might describe as a 'barried-up special'. The stickers, the black wheels, the red belts and the loud exhaust give it a certain undesirable look to some.

But ignore the uneducated. Those who know will be very excited by the R26.R, a car talented enough to be welcomed to the PH Hero ranks yesterday. Plastic windows with the rear wiper gone, foglights deleted as they're a frippery and a carbon bonnet because it's really light. That's attention to detail.

So Pic Of The Week had to honour the hardest of hardcore hatches again. Here we've got it on the tarmac at Brands GP, just before Westfield. Excellent track, fantastic car and (dare we say it) quite a good POTW. Enjoy!
