So after all that waffle conrod just kept going round in circles not really making or proving any point..(much like his Megane...)

Needless to say the only thing he accomplished by posting his Google searches word for word is a pleasant bluff of his own 'race' pedigree and supposed knowledge...

The only thing I can see for fact is:

He thinks Renault are at the cutting edge of FWD technology
FWD is the way forward
Renault are the 'new' face of racing (as Ford and Subaru arn't what they once were)

And finally he's dug himself and his fello Megane buddies a rather large hole and I can't wait for the number of threads in the new future along the lines of Meganes being pushed around meets and streets...

Of course this is my own personal opinion and does not reflect on the rest of the ESC But spread the word, if you see an out of date has-been classic in your rear view mirror...you're going to need to move over (and not swear at the driver or co-pilot)

drop them off at the door and say "you don't give a $hit when you fit them so I don't give a $hit when I deliver them" they couldn't really argue with you could they.

That Twingo has got to be designed by the same people that designed the Multipla, fooking awful.

But at the risk of getting flamed, I do rather like the look of the Megane 250, but are they still made from Coke can thin metal, like the old R5 GT turbo's? (Which were a brilliant car to drive / race, but not one i'd want to be in in an accident)
