Had the r26r and a 265 cup... So great cars. People Don t understand how much Renault can give you. They are the business as porsche with the 911 and all the variants

[@mawaboutcars671]

Great honest review. This piqued my interest because I’m currently looking at a Megane 225 Trophy as a first track-only car. Also weighs 1300kgs, and obviously has 225hp, though it only costs about £3k.

[@DeltaDubai03]

Once again a very good review of something quite new on this channel. I am glad additional Car Manufacturers recognize the benefit of being on Joe's channel. On a side note; I think the rear compartment is shaped to accommodate a set of additional wheels for track days, and specifically, carbon fibre rims, made in Australia I guess, available as an option.

[@tavirosu25]

Carbon wheels were aviable as optional in EU as well. It was I think like 20k euro per set, a very good price since OEM carbon wheels start at 10k euro per each. If you added them as an option the car would be deliver with the carbon set in the backseat, as it fits 4x rims+tyres.

[@CK-297]

Great review Joe ! I am lucky enough to have one of 11 in Australia and it's got the bi-metallic brakes, not Carbon. They perform great! I like the fact that's it's proper drivers car and so rare and unique. Not another Golf, M2 (sorry) or AMG etc. It's only a weekend toy and we have the weather for the tyres too. Thanks for a superb review 👍

[@nickwong2525]

Because there's no point to make another platform or shell for a limited production car.. That would make Renault lose money..

[@zdx197]

It's awesome it exists and we have to encourage it when brands take these kind of crazy decisions, but it will only be bought by collectors mainly. When you consider what else you can buy with 75k euro (what it costs here) you will find other cars that probably tick more boxes apart from the exclusivity one. On the other hand it does have all track-spec mods on it already. e.g. aftermarket Öhlins, on any performance car, will cost you a kidney and probably liver. I also have to agree with Joe that even though I daily an M140i myself which is almost double the engine size, this 1.8 tCe engine Renault made is really a nice little power plant. It feels eager, accels smooth through the gears and sounds better than most current 4-pot turbo's. I extensively tested the normal Mégane RS Trophy last year and taking into consideration the Trophy R is even quite a bit lighter I'm sure 300hp/400Nm doesn't feel underpowered at all, it is the sweet spot for an FWD hot hatch.

[@grezza3421]

Great video again, smashing it this year. Being a modern French hot Hatch owner myself, its refreshing to hear your positive view to the driving experience of some French flair. Its not all about bhp bragging rights in the pub. The more popular German autos are great cars, but I'll stick with my 270bhp, 1205kg(dry weight) 6spd manual. It's an absolute riot to drive.

[@johnphillips8785]

Last few that were sold went for £50k with the carbon wheels packs, which on their own were £12k on launch. Effectively making this a £40k car which some were sold at without the wheel pack. Only 2 of the 32 were full carbon spec at £72k which were the CC brakes and wheels. One a press car and the other in a collection I believe. There is a fair bit of expensive 'bits' on it over the Ohlins. Sabelt one piece buckets, Carbon bonnet, carbon rear diffuser tray, Akra Ti exhaust and carbon revo wheels. Having had an RS 300 trophy before I got the 'r', I can only say that the removal of the 4WS brings the car alive, especially on track. Should have been an option on the RS300 trophy to delete it. I daily and track mine. It is expensive for what it is to those who have not driven one and simply go on what is written by others. The main headline on all the you tube vids is "A 72k megane - eek!!'

[@4changede]

thank you for the vid, I have just spent 60K on a Abarth 595 including thousands of carbon, but this would have been an alternative for sure and I like the car....- great vid and comments Joe

[@MajorAMinor]

Does anyone know if it's normal that there is a little delay in throttle response while going full throttle in the lower gears 1-3 or 4? I didn't have that with my Meg 3 RS 265 when changing the throttle mapping to sport or extreme. There was absolute instant response. Not with this one unfortunately. Too bad you can't change the throttle mapping like on the old 265

[@pjmoody]

[@andyrewski3785]

The previous model to this was actually the previous 275 Trophy-r not the R26R

[@Scott555ish]

Great video Joe. I've come from a mk3 Focus RS to the Megane RS280 and at 6ft2 I find the seating position so so much better than the Focus. Amazingly the seats actually go lower than I need (full Alcantara trimmed sports seats) and I don't think I've needed to adjust them since the day i collected. The RS280 obviously comes in alot cheaper even with cup chassis and 2 piece Brembos and just feels so much better built than my previous Focus. I'm not a Focus hater, far from it, I was just dissapointed

[@stephenagnew670]

I was trying so hard to grab one Dow n here in Australia back alas but bought bought a rs300 trophy manual an luv it road test that next I'm sure you would fine that a better bang for the bucks

I have the 280RS with the cup chassis and that handles really well and the exhaust is bonkers in perso/sport mode. I’d love to drive this R version to see how much better it is, especially at over double the price.

[@DamoDrives]

This car costs double a normal megane trophy but isn't twice the car, its one of those cars you buy when you own a collection and can afford to spend that amount on a limited focused car like this. Great review as always

[@MajorAMinor]

I recently bought this car. It's awesome. But the delayed throttle response by going full throttle is frustrating, even in race mode. I miss the immediate responsiveness of the Meg 3 RS on "extreme" throttle setting.

[@scottfromengland2303]

Great car Joe 👍🏻 probably would need to drive it to see how it feels, going up against A45 & M2 for that cash 😎

[@cjt150]

Nice review as ever Joe. The sound of the thing! Can you try and get a Civic Type R? That’d be a nice comparison. The Type R is more reasonably priced too.

[@markrhoden68]

Shame Honda don't make a track focused version so we could compare, that would be interesting

[@cjt150]

Mark Rhoden true, the closest they’ve got is the recent limited edition 2020 Type R. With the forged wheels, stripped out sound deadening, no aircon, no infotainment.. they kept the rear seats though

[@sirdavidnorth]

Totally. See if Honda can't throw you the keys to the new 1 of 20 Limited Edition Type R's. Would love to hear how that compares.

[@paddydowney6269]

When you lose the Hatch practicality by removing the back seat, it puts it into competition with a base m2 or a cayman. You’d have to be a purist, with10 other cars, to buy one of these. As you know yourself, the m2 or cayman are a one car garage usually.

[@benmulleady7266]

I agree. This is cool but is a rich man's track toy and that puts it up against some other really big hitters. Its a hatch by name alone, it has zero practically and why give it rear doors? Surely if they are going all out weight saving then useless doors are off the list?

[@benjaminrhodes9582]

JW H don’t think Renault created a 3 door body shell for this generation Megane, only a 5dr

[@smrf73]

Benjamin Rhodes then remove the bloody back doors panels and save even more weight!

[@JaakEnnuste]

Actually, the rear seat is for 4 non street legal track tires on rims. Very original and practical.

[@smrf73]

Jaak Ennuste yeah, tires still have no hands to open doors and action the power windows.

[@markrhoden68]

Would be great if honda made a equally hardcore version to have direct competitor to look at as with the more standard trophy megane

[@figuwolf7227]

Nice looking car👏🏾 Joe, would you please review also the Peugeot 308gti? I’d like to know your opinion. Cheers

[@PureLeeful]

Nice review, shame you couldn't take it on track. Obviously people will question the price but a lot of r & d would have gone into this car and it's cleary a demonstration of what can be done with a fwd. Plenty of enthusiasts out there who will buy and already have this car. Rest assured it would be far more engaging than a lot other cars in the same price bracket.

[@jamesj590]

Good review again, your channel is on fire lately Joe. As good as it is, I think this car is a confused proposition and a missed opportunity. If you're going to do it, don't just do it 8/10 go the whole way.

[@MajorAMinor]

Agreed. If they do something extreme like this they should go all the way. A/C out, 3 doors, plastic windows, best street legal tyres available (S007 aren't even as fast as MPS4s), a little push on the hp etc., with better tyres alone they could have bested their Nürburgring time by 4-5 seconds.

[@richardrampley4980]

Standard trophy is nuts on any a or b Road this must be mega

[@step0601]

It would be interesting to modify a "normal" Megan Trophy to a similar spec to this R and see how much it would cost. Assuming you start with a new £35k Trophy. Feels like you would have to spend 30 odd grand, imagine having a carbon bonnet made ££££s! A quick check of the Ohlins web site for example and they don't list Renault, so I guess only Renault can buy from them.

[@Scott555ish]

Or start with a used one, near new, for £26K

[@biggabutdalltheway2175]

I seen one of these on eBay and thought they were having a laugh, 60k for a Renault not for me I don’t care how quick it goes, manufacturers have mastered the art of giving you less for more

[@tavirosu25]

Not really. What Joe didn't know or Renault didn't tell him is they also give you a full set of carbon wheels in that price, or at least that's the offers I've seem on UK dealers. The whole set if you were to buy it aftermarket costs you like 30k euro or more and they do reduce a lot of weight even compared to the tested, red wheels. Basicly they charge that much because this is a track day car that you can also register. Just look at the smaller Clio CUP cars they are 35-40k euro new on Renault. So I'd say this Megane is a bargain with the carbon wheels :O

[@michal.laskowski.]

weight is everything - thats why all these new heavy M3s, M5s, M8s etc are not sports cars at all. they are just powerfull cruisers. even the new fwd 128ti is like 1550kg which is ridiculous. and its not about BMW only but all af the cars on the market right now.

The car you have there is the £70K car because you cannot buy the car with just the carbon brakes. You have to buy the carbon wheels as well. There are only two of those cars in the country and this is one of them. The £60K car is the the standard car plus carbon wheels which also include the red steel wheels. Superb car let down by poor dealer network that are more used to selling £20K clios on PCP.

Great review Joe 👍🏼 and no doubt an excellent, fun car 👍🏼 but... that astronomical base price of £50K for a FWD 5 door French hatchback with cheap, plasticky interior is just bonkers and it’s going to alienate a lot of genuine car enthusiasts, including a number of Renault RS Fun Boys 🙈 Also being a 5 door only (no 3 door choice as with all modern Hot hatches) yet no back seats seems a bit silly. Sorry Renault but £50K base price for that is a bit loopy 🙈🤣 £39,995 would have been a bit more palatable.

No doubt it's a good car, and I try to have as open mind as possible, but like many, that car is too much money. Is really worth so much more compared to let's say, an FK8 Civic Type R? Yes, the Megane Trophy R WILL be quicker around a track, and has been proved to that effect around the Green Hell, but I'm still not convinced. On the plus side, it sounds a lot better than Type R, and with it being the type of car it is, it will keep its value (rare thing for a Renault, I can speak from experience) and could prove to be a collectors item.

@@JoeAchilles1 I enjoy your videos, very honest reviews just saying what my opinion would be if I had £60k that's all and it wouldn't be a Renault... Don't know what the hate is for a Tesla.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thanks buddy appreciate it. Driven all of the Tesla's and honestly don't see what the fuss is about, terrible build quality, awful cabin ergonomics and sooo ugly. Just don't get the fuss around them personally.

@@JoeAchilles1 personal preference I guess but I really like the design of the model 3, especially the performance. Cyber truck is questionable though, that thing is fugly. The one I test drove had no problems with build quality compared to other reports elsewhere you hear about, I guess they're slowly improving it? I'm no Tesla fanboy by any accounts, currently driving an m135i (N55) thanks to your reviews on them.
