Looks like you have projectors ? H1 bulbs for those I believe. Bit of a pig to change, but just give yourself an hour and steady away.

I don’t think any of them actually came with them from factory so it will be very hard to find out, I think I have seen one with a pair of Recaro’s re-trimmed in the Gordini black/grey & blue combination and they were retrofitted. I have just seen your post on the Gordini register and yours...

Been a while since I updated this, just thought I would post a quick one to keep everything up to date. The clutch started slipping a few months ago in higher gears, it was still the original and I knew it would need changing at some point anyway with the power it's running so wasn't too...

Looks loads better with the Speedlines! I used to love the cup alloys but I think they're my least favourite out of all options these days.

It's hard to tell really as the market is all over the place at the minute and these very rarely come up for sale anymore. You know the price you paid to acquire the car so really that is the current worth of the car. It would be very hard to replace if something did happen as it's such a rare...

Definitely excellent mileage, I bet there aren’t many unmolested examples left in LY that low. I want to say now is the best time to sell, but after having had several cars since my R27, my advice is keep it and enjoy owning one of the last pure hot hatches of our time. Keep us updated with...

Good job with the maintenance! Just looked back through your thread, the car looks in excellent condition and highlights just how bloody fantastic Liquid Yellow is, especially with the black contrasting parts. What's the mileage on the car now ? (if you don't mind me asking)

You can find the Carminat SD cards on eBay for slightly cheaper than what TomTom charge, the issue is that these will eventually be redundant as new roads are added to the map and you obviously have the risk of buying them through eBay and not working. If you just need the UK & Ireland maps its...

Welcome back Shuv! Looks excellent, has to be one of the lowest mileage ones in the country that will hopefully be used and not in a collection. Looking forward to seeing you put your own stamp on it.

It's more than likely the lower ball joints, these are known to fail and usually get a scraping noise when turning (I get why you first thought belt noise, it can be awful) - When my old R27 developed the issue it was always noticeable on a morning when on full lock coming off the drive, then it...

I’ve been thoroughly reading your excellent thread over the last week or so Ben, it could definitely be on the cards! I think I’m going to use the car at the current power throughout next summer and see if I can justify the cost. I think I made the right decision coming from the Cupra as I...

TLDR - I Bought an R26, here's some pictures at the bottom :grinning: It's been a long time since I updated this thread and a lot has happened since. I sold the Megane 275 back in March 2021 thinking it was time for something sensible, a Volvo V40 was purchased and lasted about 2 months before...

I really don't think there's much in them to be honest. Someone who has Cooksports will say they're better and someone who has Grams will say they're better. As far as lowering springs go, I don't think you can go wrong with either of them and I've seen multiple people recommending them both...

Thanks everyone, I had seen similar suggestions but just wanted to check that I wasn’t missing anything important. Now the hard part, emptying the garage!

Hi Everyone I'm just looking for a bit of advice. I've recently moved back in to a Renault Sport in the form of an R26 (will update my old thread eventually - I much prefer this forum to the Megane ones!) Whilst it's going to be no garage queen and I believe cars should be used, I am thinking...

I think the Phase 1 cars don't sell as well as the Trophy (Ph1 & Ph2) in a private sale, I see quite a few been offered for long period of time with a couple of price revisions in between. You do have it in a great colour and very low miles and the right buyer will be out there, it just depends...

Hope everyone is safe and well! Thought I would pop up a well overdue update now I'm a year in to ownership: As mentioned in my last post the work was done back in March 2020 at DDC for the 4th year service and the car has performed excellent since. I jumped on a group buy at RsTuning in July...

I can't help with the first question but I recently fitted a used set of B14's, so here's what I did: They we're already cleaned up pretty well by the previous owner but when I got them home I spent some time using some All Purpose Cleaner (Surfex HD) to give them a good clean up. Once dry I...

The issue you have with places like Greenlight is that the insurers they work with want history of you driving similar powered cars, I had a Clio R27 before moving to my Megane 275 and there were no issues when it came to insuring. (I'm 27 for reference) My brother who's in his late 30's...

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out. It's the rears at 73 euro each that surprised me most, even reconditioned ones on Kamracing, RPD etc are ~£158 each!
