Description
Classic Car Design presents this rare Renault Mégane II R26-R. Launched in 2008, it is a direct evolution of the Mégane R26, taking the 'R' concept even further: drastic weight saving notably through the removal of the rear bench, insulation, and polycarbonate rear windows. Chassis settings have been refined and the transmission retains the limited-slip differential. In 2008, the R26-R set a record at the Nürburgring for a front-wheel-drive production car, in 8'17''. It was produced in only 126 units for the French market (450 in total).
Externally, this specimen, having only two previous owners, is in very good overall condition with no scratches or notable dents, only rare and very light signs of use. The paint retains its original shine. All stickers are present, the 18-inch red alloy wheels are in perfect condition with no scratches.
Inside, you enter a racing atmosphere, no frills but two bucket seats with homologated harnesses and a 4-point roll cage. The whole is in good overall condition, only a few defects typical of Megane from that era: a little wear on the door handles and the headlining fabric sagging.
Mechanically, the 230 horsepower are indeed present. Despite its low mileage, the car has always been regularly serviced, so everything works perfectly.
Buying this Mégane II R26-R is acquiring a piece of Renault Sport history. Bonus, the 'R26-R Renault Sport' box set is present. A car to preserve and use regularly to enjoy a lively drivetrain but above all a formidable chassis without all the electronic crutches of modern cars, a true sporty and pure saloon!
