They are seriously sorted pieces of kit
If you haven't driven one, don't knock them
They have more mid range punch than the 86 and handle like all get out
The only reason I am not getting a Megane RS265 is that I don't need that much power & grip on the road to have fun
My post didn't say the renaults are shit, it didn't say they aren't capable?? It didn't even target them?? If you read it, i was saying that there are jsut as many, if not more, bad and unsporty (it is now a word :P) fwd vehicles as there are rwd vehicles in response to someone saying most rwd are shit
Of course they are faster in a straight line. Same power, less weight. Of course they are faster around a track. less weight, racing suspension, racing brakes.
What's your point? If you added the same parts to an 86, it would be just as good. Not saying better, but just as good
