Has anyone driven/ridden in a Renault Megane R26? (Has to be the R26, don't care about the 225 or the Cup)
I know its bloody rapid, but I need to know if the ride is as bad as reviews say?
Thing is, I like a bit of a harder ride (ha ha, settle down pkc) but I'd like to know whether its too hard
No I can't test drive one and find out for myself, theres only 6 in Adelaide and Renault won't give anyone a test drive without money on the table.
Its this, a Golf GTI (driven, nice, its in front at the moment), keep my money for frivolity, or buy a house............. |

Buy a house! :whip:
Its a 2L turbo front wheel drive throwing probably a fair bit of horsepower through there, that means it torque steers horribly off the line and has the turning circle of an oil tanker.
Aside from that, no one takes young men in ricey hatchbacks seriously :p hehe |

230hp, but its got an LSD on the front. Handles insanely well, no torque steer, huge amounts of grip, everything I've ever read says its by far the quickest small car out there, the best handling and the best driving experience.
Plus it doesn't look that outlandish if you get rid of the F1 Team decals (not like the Civic Type-R which looks stupid, the interior is even worse). You can easily potter around and no one will look twice.
Its problem is the ride (hence the question), which one mag said "is like being kicked in the kidneys over every bump" and later said "if you don't mind blood in your urine, its great".
Like i said, if (and it is still only an if) I do get a new car its likely to be the Golf, its just great all round and looks pretty good |
