Just thought id introduce myself, Im Mike from Yeovil (south somerset) and im new to the site. I currently have a megane R26.R, wasnt intending on getting it but always liked the hot renaults clio 172/182 and the new 197/200 and the Renaultsport meganes etc. But fell in love with the R26.R in my local dealership. I managed to get it for a decent price through a friend who works as a sales man there so took the plunge and got a new car.

Ive had the car for a couple months now and loving every minute. Previous cars include various Hondas Integra DC2 and DC5 Type R's also owned various civics EK9 type R a couple vti's and a CRX (great fun car), also had a Escort RS Turbo Series 2 and various other hot hatches etc and as you can see im a bit of a petrol head and have usually had a passion for Hondas and N/A high reving cars. (totally different power delivery to the megane).

Here are some pictures of the current car feel free to ask any questions on the car and if anyone wants any advise on hondas etc ive had them for the past 6 years so know a fair bit about them.

Lovely, my dream car (Clio V6 now replaced). I hope it's living up to what I imagine it would be like!

I've seen one down at Castle Combe also in white, but never any others around this area.

i remember

I was behind one of these on a twisty back road the other day and he was doing a rather good job of creeping away from me in the V6.

Go pretty darn well so they do. Nice choice.
