Ugly cars. So Ugly that not only were they hit with the Ugly stick, but they were hit with the rest of the tree.

Have to say it does look worth more money than the bug, depends on your reason for wanting to change?

I had a trophy, not very fast really and economy wasnt the greatest (although it will be better than the scoob), however the handling is awesome, very neutral and inspires confidence. Good fun car. Get it mapped by RS tuning in leeds or I think K tec down south, stage 1 will release about 250+ bhp with more torque.

Personally, I wouldnt swap a 2002 bugeye for a megane 225
I would swap for a S2000 tho

I have a Megane, not a 225 but a derv, as a derv its a great car (did I just say that) but that sort of money for one, no
Mines a privilege model so make sure you get what this has (it might not have)

in dash single din 6 cd
17s with pressure sensors
digital climate (not the big round ****)
auto unlock/start (key in pocket)
should have auto lights/wipers

i'd still keep the scoob, a far better car, really
but change the white wheels!
