  • After more than 2 months of ownership and a lot later than I had hoped, I'm finally uploading a proper video on my glacier-white Megane R26. It's not perfect, but, as far as driving fun is concerned - it's brilliant.
    Thanks for watching!

    I love mine... They are too much fun. I use mine as a daily and I am a Dad to two kids 11 & 9 and they love it too.

      How do you find getting them in the back? I have a 4 month old and I'm moving up from a Clio 182, I can't fit his rear facing behind the driver so my poor partner is pushed right up to the dash for my son to sit behind!

    Production quality is 10/10
    And it's awesome to know there are some hard-core Renault Sport fans like yourself out there.

    Nice review, I had an R26 but had to sell it when kids came along. When they got older bought a 250 full fat! Had it for about 6 yrs now and still love it. Renaultsport are the masters of hot hatchery 😁👍

    I agree completely with regarding the cars fantastic handling, like you I've gone from a 182 to r26, mine is about 270. The car doesn't feel as quick as I hoped as it's so well planted until you look at the Speedo lol, another good vid 👍

      Thank you! That’s kind of how I feel about mine too. It’s fairly punchy and can carry some serious pace through the corners. It just doesn’t have the same ‘raw’ sense of speed/fun as the Clio. 270 must be pretty nice!

    Hello! great review. what do you think between clio rs 197 and megane rs r26 f1?

    • @ChristopherGower
      @ChristopherGower  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The 197 is not as good as standard, but the chassis is way better than the previous generation Clio.
      197 is more raw. The R26 is far more capable of a car as standard, and IMO more special due to the limited run and ties to Renaults F1 win. A modern classic.

      @@ChristopherGower I see! I am negotiating a Mégane F1 rs on 9000euros with 90000klm and from my quick research it sees quite a bargain. It's same price for a good 197
