Yeah I agree with you too there. Megane 250 is amazing. I would have gone for one of these as well, but I had already done the Renault thing, loved it, and made a near $15K saving on the VW Golf I have dreamed of owning for years, and so I had to do it! The potential with the AWD drivetrain and APR performance offerings is just great!

My previous car was the all hallowed Clio Renaultsport 182 Cup. Which I loved dearly and miss terribly while I wait for the R. So I know what it is like to own a true bare bones white knuckled hot hatch from Renault, but I always felt that Renaults lacked a little of the special feel aesthetically and option wise (on road they are a sensation), the VW trumps in terms of sheer elegance and build quality and options inside.

That said. I am a little envious. If I could have both the 250 and the R. God I would do that!! Congrats mate, you will not regret the purchase of a Renaultsport vehicle!
