Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 TCe 180 (2008) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 03 November 2008 14:00

Though the front always struck me as a tad clunky and corporate, I’ve long admired the relentlessly shaken and gently stirring rump of this new Renault Megane’s predecessor. Trouble is, it seems that the majority of Britons, along with all too many Italians, have not… Why not? What's wrong with the Renault Megane? Renault makes no bones about the fact ...

Renaultsport Megane R26R (2008) CAR review and video

Chris Chilton, 27 October 2008 11:00

Dreaming of a Porsche 911 GT3 RS but living with a hot hatch budget? Renault’s stripped-to-the-bones Megane R26R is the answer. Based on the acclaimed R26, the R version is the most extreme factory hatch since Renault’s own Clio V6. But instead of adding a big engine and more kilos, Renault has left the engine alone and cut out the ...

Renault Clio Cup (2008) CAR review

Nick Trott, 24 September 2008 09:00

The Clio Renaultsport Cup is the third Clio to receive the ‘Cup’ moniker. Following in the wheel tracks and skidmarks of the deeply entertaining Clio II 172 Cup and 182 Cup, the Clio Renaultsport 197 Cup features the same suspension set-up as the limited edition Clio 197 R27, taller 5th and 6th gear ratios and optional air conditioning. So, it’s ...

Renault Twingo Renaultsport 133 (2008) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 29 August 2008 15:18

Renault has just unleashed the Twingo Renaultsport. It's the £11,500 little brother to the Clio 197, so it's a bargain, but is it any good? A new-to-the-range 1.6-litre engine provides decent grunt, but the base car is boring to drive - let's find out if Renaultsport has worked a miracle. Forget the Mini Cooper, I want one of those Twingo ...

Renault Megane Coupe Concept CAR review

Ged Maxwell, 31 March 2008 09:07

Even Renault people admit the current Megane is something of a Marmite car: you either love it or hate it. But that could be about to change as Renault reveals a replacement this autumn. Where does the Coupe Concept fit into that plan? It gives an idea of what the current Megane’s successor will look like when a production version is unveiled ...

Renault Grand Modus 1.2 TCE 100 CAR review

Anonymous, 14 December 2007 10:00

You have to hand it to Renault. After the success of the original Espace, it didn’t sit on its laurels. The Scenic that followed had an even greater impact and had the kudos of being a truly original concept (the Espace owed more than a little something to Chrysler) while the Kangoo was designed as both a van and a ...

Renault Clio Grand Tour concept CAR review

Anonymous, 08 August 2007 08:31

It’s called the Grand Tour but it looks just like a Clio Estate to me… Well spotted - that’s exactly what this is. It's simply the concept version that was built for the Geneva Motor Show 2007 as a preview to the Estate. Renault is revealing a proper roadgoing version at the Frankfurt Motor Show this September. The car we’ve ...

Renault Twingo GT 1.2 TCE CAR review

Anonymous, 08 August 2007 04:04

A small car from Renault... you mean smaller than the Clio and Modus? Yes, that'll be the Twingo. Don't let the chunky looks fool you – this is very definitely pitched below the Clio in size and price, with a kick-off price tag below £8500. It'll only ever be a three-door model, and Renault is aiming it squarely at young, ...

Renault Clio 197 R27 CAR review

Anonymous, 25 April 2007 09:08

The Clio F1 Team R27. That's the 197 special edition named after this year's slothful F1 car, right? Ooh, get you. We should be feeling sympathy for Renault. It wraps up the World Championship with the R26 racer, launches a brilliant Megane special edition boasting the same name, and can do no wrong. But, so far, the new R27 F1 ...

Renaultsport Megane 230 F1 Team R26 CAR review

Anonymous, 04 December 2006 06:04

Oh my. Someone’s been busy with the stickers. Hmmm. They are a little less than subtle, aren’t they? But this new Renault Megane is a little more than just a go-faster decal job. Celebrating the success of this year’s Renault Formula 1 car (and announced way before the title was secured, natch), it builds upon the already potent Megane Renaultsport ...
