... a 2012 3RS red bull edition (RB7) #166, with the yellow bits painted black and the red bull decals removed by the first owner. bought the pocket rocket in 07/ 2014. don't think you had this version in the UK. basically, it's a raider without the matte paint and the recaros are cloth instead of leather.

it's bog standard except for the K&N panel filter, a stud conversion, a steering wheel spacer (i bought on here from Giacomo_rs), four michelin pilot super sport 225/40 18 tyres (bridgestone potenza RE050A 215/40 18 are oem) and a stubby aerial (easily plus ten km/h top speed).

plan is to get it more out on track than last year. spa in june is already booked. maybe i'll see some of you there and say hello.
great forum btw. insane builds. wish we could mod as wild as some of you guys can, but the belgian MOT is a royal PITA.

Looks amazing with all the yellow rubbish and stickers removed. Very nice.
 
cheers men.

yup, pretty chuffed with how the car looks after a thorough clean. but the car being black, that lasts for just about a day. if you're lucky ... :smiley:
 
Seeing these posts makes me like my Deep Black Clio even more! Those wheels look awesome - I understand they are standard for that edition, but are these also found on the Megane?
That's given me inspiration for some vent painting shenanigans...

yup. same as on the megane R26.R. they're 8X18 ET66.
 
Can confirm GNA is indeed Deep Black. Funnily enough I googled the paint codes this morning. Found a great post on it too.
