Introduced in September 2004, the first generation Mégane RS was available in three-door and five-door hatchback versions, both with the same engine, and was built at Renault's Dieppe factory by using body shells made in Palencia, Spain. The Mégane Renault Sport 225 used double-axis strut suspension with independent steering axis at the front. Powered by a four-cylinder, 2. 0-litre turbocharged engine tuned to produce 225bhp, the car is capable of sprinting from 0-60mph in 6. 3 seconds, before going on to a top speed of 147mph. Aimed at the potent SEAT Leon Cupra R and Honda's Civic Type R, it is distinguished by flared wheelarches, twin exhausts, and 18-inch alloy wheels.
Manufactured in 2004, the 225 RenaultSport offered, was supplied new to the United Kingdom being first registered on the 6th of September that year. Finished in Blue with Renault F1 Team decals, the Mégane benefits from a Black interior upholstery. Having had just four former keepers, ‘SA55 HRO’ has covered a modest mileage of just some 65, 500 miles from new. Last serviced by the owner last year, with very minimal miles covered since, it is offered with a history file that contains the book pack including the stamped service book, the file also has a collection of invoices, a selection of previous MOTs, a no advisory MOT until May this year, and a current V5C document.
