    [AUS] Clio IV 200T vs Fiesta ST

    I shot some photos for an Aussie website back in Jan, so thought I'd share the results. Was lucky enough to have the Fiesta for a few days and also drive them back to back on a late night mountain drive too :thumbup: IMG_7956 by www.autofocus.net.au, on Flickr IMG_7911 by...

    His and hers - RS Clio 4 200T

    A few weeks back we picked up our RS Clio 4 Sport Trophy (full fat) in Glacier White. So far, so good. She was delivered with only 15km, so we're taking it pretty easy to start. I didn't get a drive for several hours as the wife wouldn't give up the driver's seat! On that, this will be a...

    [AUS] OZRS Sydney Drive Day - April 2013

    G'day, just realised I never posted about our forum's rather large drive day back in April that I organised. I was lucky enough to have use of my Dad's LY R26 for the day. We ended up with about 30 Renaultsports plus a few ring-ins along the way for a 300-odd kilometre drive from Sydney, west...

    [AUS] Blue Mountains Drive Day #2 Report + Photos

    22.07.2012 Well, after the fun some mates and I had in the Blue Mountains a few months back, I was keen to get back out there again and explore a bit more. After the huge response to the last drive day that we advertised on the OZRS forum (forty-plus cars, for those who missed it) we decided...

    [Aus content] Supercar d'Elegance

    Wanky name, nice cars! Small, invite-only show in Sydney today for people to mingle and show off their flash cars. My Dad got an invite to display his yellow Evora. There was some serious metal on display and it was amazing to see them up very close and personal. I can't decide if my favourite...

    [Aus content] Biggest RS drive day so far...

    A friend and I decided it had been too long since OZRS had had their last drive day, so we posted on the forum proposing June 17 and an epic route, heading north of Sydney to the Hunter wine region via all the fun roads. http://goo.gl/maps/dvAx (this map doesn't take into account the extra...

    [Aus] Walkie's track 172

    A few of you have asked about it, so I thought I'd put up a proper thread, from the beginning, of my 2001 RSC 172 track car. I had had my 182 since Nov '06 and had been slowly modding it for track days/fast road. It was also my daily driver. A cheap 172 came up for sale nearby @ the end of May...

    [Aus content] Track Day, May 16

    [Aus content] Cheeky Easter weekend away

    Went away to Mudgee, NSW with the wife, good mate with an R27 and his missus. Lots of wine and some nice roads too - not together, though :thumbup: IMG_5300 by alex b photo, on Flickr IMG_5365 by alex b photo, on Flickr IMG_5370_copy by alex b photo, on Flickr IMG_5383_copy by...

    [Aus content] Blue Mountains Drive Day Report + Photos

    On Sunday, two mates (Adrian & Anthony) and I went for a blat through the various tarmac offerings of the Blue Mountains area. I decided at about 7pm on Saturday night that I'd go with them as I wasn't overly familiar with the mountain roads and had heard a lot about them. To minimise traffic...

    Speaker help

    Hey guys. Wondering if anyone has experience with the speakers below? A mate is offering them to me for a decent price. He bought them for his Megane 225 second-hand but unused from a guy with a 172, but never got around to fitting them. Wondering if the ICE guys have any idea if they'll be an...

    [Aus content] Impromptu meet in a car park

    A few Aussie forum regulars met up on Monday night and I snapped a few shots while they were standing around chatting. No fancy compositions as they were all parked in their bays but I did a bit of light-painting with an LED torch. There're 2 more photos to come over the weekend as each image...

    Another Aussie meet

    G'day, On Tuesday a bunch of us (15-20 cars) from OZRS met at Homebush (site of the 2000 Olympics) for a cruise across Sydney to a pizza restaurant at Newport, near the beach (great pizza!). A short section of twisties down into Newport but apart from that just a gentle cruise. Nothing special...

    We went for a drive...

    And ended up with 23 Renaultsports. I couldn't stay for the whole event but managed to get a few quick photos, nothing spectacular. For those that don't recognise the locations, this is the Royal National Park, just south of Sydney, Australia! Enjoy IMG_4163 copy by alex b photo, on Flickr...
