The Megane R26 Is Even Better Than I Expected

After more than 2 months of ownership and a lot later than I had hoped, I'm finally uploading a proper video on my glacier-white Megane R26. It's not perfect, but, as far as driving fun is concerned - it's brilliant.
Thanks for watching!

Production quality is 10/10 And it's awesome to know there are some hard-core Renault Sport fans like yourself out there.

[@RGH-Warehouse]

I have one, it really is a special car.

Loving the vid mate - can’t wait to have a ride in this soon! Great car!

[@ChristopherGower]

Thanks Richard! Will have to meet soon.

I love mine... They are too much fun. I use mine as a daily and I am a Dad to two kids 11 & 9 and they love it too.

[@edwardkarran4963]

How do you find getting them in the back? I have a 4 month old and I'm moving up from a Clio 182, I can't fit his rear facing behind the driver so my poor partner is pushed right up to the dash for my son to sit behind!

We will do the things we love and hate soon mate. Great vid as per and well sort out soon about doing another vid

[@mrt1392]

I agree completely with regarding the cars fantastic handling, like you I've gone from a 182 to r26, mine is about 270. The car doesn't feel as quick as I hoped as it's so well planted until you look at the Speedo lol, another good vid 👍

[@ChristopherGower]

Thank you! That’s kind of how I feel about mine too. It’s fairly punchy and can carry some serious pace through the corners. It just doesn’t have the same ‘raw’ sense of speed/fun as the Clio. 270 must be pretty nice!

[@Oilskin]

Clean! Loving the RS content.

[@blusky6]

Amazing review. Thank you!

Gran coche para el día a día ...gran coche para fines de semana en carreteras de montaña...mejor todavía para unas vueltas en circuito..para mí el coche perfecto...se revalorizara con los años ..

[@markbaker3391]

Nice review, I had an R26 but had to sell it when kids came along. When they got older bought a 250 full fat! Had it for about 6 yrs now and still love it. Renaultsport are the masters of hot hatchery 😁👍

Hi from a fellow glacier R26! Lovely car mate.

[@Trophy_R]

Wheels are 18” not 19”

[@Nath_Buys_Cars]

Where there's an RS Megane Steve Holland will lurk and correct. Bless you sir. You still got the R26R? Silly question ;-)

[@Trophy_R]

@@Nath_Buys_Cars Hiya yes still got the R26.R, using my Trophy R for the track days this year though

[@kostasmilisis]

Hello! great review. what do you think between clio rs 197 and megane rs r26 f1?

[@ChristopherGower]

The 197 is not as good as standard, but the chassis is way better than the previous generation Clio. 197 is more raw. The R26 is far more capable of a car as standard, and IMO more special due to the limited run and ties to Renaults F1 win. A modern classic.

[@kostasmilisis]

@@ChristopherGower I see! I am negotiating a Mégane F1 rs on 9000euros with 90000klm and from my quick research it sees quite a bargain. It's same price for a good 197
