Thank you! Yes, absolutely. Between the 250 and the 265, you won't notice much difference. Personally, I'd rather go for a 265, but again, there's such little difference that it won't make much of a difference. So obviously, with this being my project car, I've experienced everything that basically can go wrong, lol. Firstly, make sure you can obtain a decent history on the car. Like, was it used on track, etc. You basically want a good idea if the car has been abused or not. A common problem with the Meg 3 RS is the AC. Make sure the AC is working 😂. Try and get the Recaro bucket seats in the model you purchase. There are the standard Renault Sport seats, and they honestly take away from the experience. So, just with the 265. They came out in a few different models. The lux (basically, the most comfortable), the cup (more track focused), and then the trophy (the most hardcore) Between the three, I think the cup offers the most for its price. But again, these are great cars. Just follow the general rule of thumb and try to get one that's been looked after, and you'll have minimal fuss. I've featured an Oyster Grey 265 on my channel a lot, and that has 120k km on the clock, whereas my RB8 has 23k km. Yet, the Oyster Grey was looked after better and has given MUCH less problems. I hope this helps!
Great video mate! I’m currently in the market and tossing between the 250 and 265. Is there anything you recommend I keep in mind when purchasing?
Thank you!
