New car time - CJ_Derv - 26-07-2013
As you all know the derv shit itself after 12 month of thrashing
Now I know some aint gonna like this but it is french what are your opinions?
I know I said I was getting a bmw but il be getting a company car in 18month so no point splashing out on a 10k car to try n sell for a loss in 18 month so buying the renaultsport megane
I aint changing my mind even with mechanic tellin me the injectors can sieze in and it can cost 200 per injector to free but really like these and theyre 175 and iv booked it in for remap friday before iv even bought it lol
RE: New car time - THE_Liam - 26-07-2013

Im going to testdrive sunday JP said theyre a mint car and been told the diesel renaultsport is a lovely drive also better than the 225 petrol and is just as quick even at 175 due to torque so with a map shud be great
RE: New car time - sam - 26-07-2013
Always liked these dude
nice buy!
RE: New car time - Dum-Dum - 26-07-2013
So meh, BMW would of been awesome especially in your hands.
Just don't let the meg turn you into an utter lady garden like it does to some people.
Re: New car time - THE_Liam - 26-07-2013
You gonna clean it 3 times a day like Ed? Looks well though, but its no 205...
RE: New car time - Scott - 26-07-2013
Very nice! They map to 225 so just as powerful as the petrol, but unfortunately doesn't quite have the same shiny things as the r26 (e.g. The lsd). It should be awesome though man, you'll enjoy it!
Re: New car time - CJ_Derv - 26-07-2013
Dont worry dum dum a car wont change me and I may have the option of a 1 series for company car yet
Liking these opinions anyway I think il go for it but just on phone to flux as you know I had that crash in the blaze and still not been settled so gona be oayin a fortune to swap till november hope not too much that stops me buyin it but hooefully reasonable enough and then cheap when I get me no claims back as just waitong on passenger to drop claim as driver has because he got caught out lying to insirance as police statement came bacl woth totally different story than what he told insurance and passengers matches his but just a waitong game even tho this happened in may 2012

U rekon the lsd are same I could always drop one in
RE: New car time - Scott - 26-07-2013
good lad. I think some of the suspension is different though so that will also need swapping
Re: New car time - CJ_Derv - 26-07-2013
They want 299 to swap till November and quotes 1800 with me at fault for a years so not too bad I supposed if im gona be not at fault soon
they just aint open sunday so think get dad to drive it homr n insure monday
RE: New car time - C.A.R. - 26-07-2013
Nice cars these buddy and pretty rare by all accounts, most of the diesel models are shite! But this is a proper derv-powered Renaultsport...
I like the idea of them I'm just not sure I could live with their unusual looks. Enjoy it!
Re: New car time - CJ_Derv - 26-07-2013
I know read a lot of good things about them and some bad but general bad things are the lower spec diesel models they seems to have ironed most problems out on these, the specs pretty high with brembos etc really like the unusual loom tbh and will be ordering private plate next few weeks or so B19 CJY
Its up for 4800 im thinking offerin 4k cash in his hand sunday
RE: New car time - Pompey306mark - 26-07-2013
If you want to pay £4000 offer £3800 cash you will end up meeting in the middle somewhere.
Re: New car time - CJ_Derv - 26-07-2013
Ahh good advise mark I just used my appearance when buying the derv eith JP he wanted 900 and got that for 650 but didnt think of that
nice one just dont wanna pay too much theres one 160 miles away but a cat d possibly for 4k bang on so will say I can get another with less milage for less also but cheers
RE: New car time - padge - 26-07-2013

Just got back with her
RE: New car time - silverzx - 29-07-2013
I HATE the keys for those with a passion. Otherwise looks good!
RE: New car time - Scott - 29-07-2013
Lovely car mate! Did you get it for what you hoped in the end?
Re: New car time - CJ_Derv - 29-07-2013
Nahh he wasnt for budgin got for 4700 but worth it its mint!
RE: New car time - Scott - 29-07-2013
That's fair enough, to be honest that's about right from what I've seen of them! How are you getting on so far? Big improvement over the 306?
RE: New car time - Niall - 29-07-2013
£4700? Thats actually a fair bit of car for the money! I think id consider one if i was after a car on that budget and im not even a fan of the looks of them!
RE: New car time - Curt - 29-07-2013
Looks pretty smart in black
. After seeing loads of them at the weekend, they're growing on me. The white one I saw on track looked real smart!
RE: New car time - Niall - 29-07-2013
i much prefer the newer shape. Think it looks lovely! Mind you, after seeing that dyno graph of that white 265 cup on the meg stand at fcs, not sure id want one! Almost a 100hp transmission loss!
RE: New car time - Curt - 29-07-2013
Yeah the newer shape is very nice, although they sound so bloody weird! Not in a nice way either... Wasn't that dyno miles out though? Surely a bit much for a FWD?!
