Title: Hello Frogs
Post by: Nigel_Aston on April 27, 2016, 12:32:17 PM
Hi Guys,

My name is Nigel Samuel and I've been thinking about a Renualt for a while now. Many months ago I went down to the local dealer and had a good look at the Trophy R. What a car! I knew it was out of my budget but had to have a look before they were all sold. I wish more manufactures would do this!

I would like to use the car for daily use and the occasional track day, hopefully more than occasionally, Therefore I'm thinking the Clio182 or the R26 if someone wants to part with one...  :)

Please let me know if there are any around and for sale. Currently I'm looking at trademe, but not many come up, and if they do they're gone burgers...

Cheers,
Nigel

Hi Guys,

I spent saturday morning at Puke raceway and all I can saw is WOW!

everything was phenomenal about the car, balance, brakes and the smile factor was massive!

The only item I changed in preparation for the day was brake fluid. The Motul RBR660 never missed a beat and the pedal never lost feel. Money well spent!

I cant wait for the next one!  8)

Good work.

I put some Frodo pads in mine when the OEM ones finally died, was a worth while upgrade, much better feel and performance.

Must say, I'm a bit jealous, I miss my RS250 so much.
