Renaultsport Megane: one of France’s finest?

All eyes have been on France following the tragic events in Paris last week. The thoughts of everyone at webuycarsformore.com are with all those who have been affected by the attacks on one of the world’s great cities.

However, the shocking events have also led to requests from Parisians for the world to embrace the spirit of the city: that is, showing brotherhood and defiance, while loving life and living it to the full.

Which gives us a perfect excuse to give our appreciation to something the French do quite unlike anyone else: the hot hatch.

There have been many spectacular hot hatches through the years, and a good majority of them have been French. From Peugeot’s legendary 205 GTi, to the Renault Clio Williams (and various other Renaultsport Clios), even to the Citroen AX GT, nobody demonstrates an appreciation of front-wheel-drive handling and outright driving fun quite like the French.

Which brings us nicely to this week’s car, surely one of the finest vehicles to leave France, well, ever: the Renaultsport Megane.

The one we have in stock is a fantastic example of an amazing car. The speed the 2.0-litre turbocharged engine generates is more than enough for most purposes (it’ll see off the sprint to 60 in a shade over six seconds) while the handling is simply out of this world.

It regularly topped group tests when it hit the showrooms and it really isn’t possible to go around corners much faster for less than £10,000.
