Merci beaucoup!

Nope, not mine on the cover. I have been asked a few times by some publications to use it, but due to sentimental value, I have not bought myself to lend it out for the day yet!

Here's my latest Megane. Picked it up in August. Looks like I was lucky to get it when I did since many hopeful owners are going to be waiting until the new year at least!

I wanted the gloss black alloys on the car, but Renault ran out so I had to go for the diamond cut instead. I usually really don't like diamond cut wheels, but these look great in the flesh, and thankfully there's a bit of a rim protector on the tyre so I hope I'll be able to keep them clean!

It doesn't have the drama of the old 250/265/275 models from the side, but it looks fantastic from the back and feels very similar to drive, though it seems to have improved traction over the old model (probably due to the weight and the additional tyre width).

They are a bit. I would have preferred the all black option but Renault ran out.

It's a shame they didn't come with something similar to the old car, but fussy diamond cut wheels seem to be the trend these days.

Yep. Lovely.

Have been thinking of getting rid of my 7 month old M2 for another great RS Megane...

Loved my 225's, R26's and my R26.R

Not had chance to drive it properly yet as the weather is pretty grim.

Cant wait for some drier and warmer days to find out what this car really drives like.

I have a problem.....

It is a bit of a cheat though.

The 106 and Twingo are mine.
The Laguna (and a 406 which I can't find a picture of) are Dad's.
One Brother has a C15 (and a peugeot partner, which again, no picture).
Dad got the clio for free, we did it up and gave it to my sister in law as a christmas present a few years ago.
And my other brother has a peugeot 206 (again no picture).

So 8 french cars in a family of 5....
