Introducing my new car which Ive had for a week now after replacing a 07 BMW 130i manual.

Pre children I had a couple of year old Twingo 133 and always had the idea of trying some else from the Renaultsport range when I had the chance.I always originally looking at Clio 197/200s but when this popped up in arguably the best colour ever I had to have it.

With these not being young cars anymore this one especially needed a few cosmetic points addressing to bring it back to where I want it.Mechaically all seems good so far.....







Lists have been made (small items mainly) and I'm waiting for things to arrive.Plans are to keep it pretty much as it is now,clean it up and have some fun with it.

First job completed a couple of days after buying it was fixing a common issue on these.



After



Someone had kindly changed EVERY interior bulb for cheap LED version.These have now been changed to standard items.Much better.

So far I'm over the moon with it.

Thanks

As you do with every "New" car you buy,you Google the Reg to find its dirty secrets.Turns out it used to be owned by a fellow Pistonheads user who I've emailed as I'd love to here how he found it.Great picture by the way.



Also a place I'm sure every Renaultsport car has been....

Looks a cracking car that Tom; great colour...

Proper chalk n cheese from your 130i wink

Never owned one, but have been out in a few R26s and they are superb; they just want to go and go I found as well

Thanks Dan.Yeh completely different to the 130i,I enjoyed it but the engine was the stand out piece and to enjoy the incredible sound you had to rev it and by that time I found i was over the speed limit too often!
