Thank you all for the kind words, there's a few cars left off the list which weren't "performance" cars... But now that i actually read over it realise that it actually has been a lot of cars in such a short span he-he

Hello OZrenaultsport. Just an introduction to myself, name is Steve from Geelong Victoria and just paid a deposit on my first European vehicle. What vehicle is it do you ask? Megane R.S. 275 Trophy Colour? White I had a mad hot wheels collection as a kid, was always fascinated with sports cars, and can remember distinctly playing Gran Turismo on PS1 for the first time and being an utter awe of the different cars on offer. Below is a list of the cars i have owned since i was 15 years old, most recently (last week) selling my 95 r33 gtst Mitsubishi Cordia turbo Ford TX5 turbo Liberty RS turbo sil80 (sr20det) s13 (sr20det) Ba XR8 Mk2 r33 Skyline gtst r33 Skyline gtst Bugeye WRX s14 200sx 09 Forester XT r33 Skyline gtst Currently - no vehicle... Deposit paid As you can see a lot of my previous vehicles have been JDM orientated. But i've been drawn to the RS for quite some time, and to be honest i'm quite nervous getting into a French car. This is water i've never swam in before. The car is the most expensive i've ever bought, it's european, its front wheel drive... So nervous yet SO DAMN EXCITED The main thing that drew me to this car was the fact it was built around being a fast hot hatch. I never actually really considered one given that Renault always have had the persona that they're an unreliable car. Seems its a misconception, but the fact it has back seats was a big plus as i do have kids that i need to pick up from school occasionally but still retained a true sports car with stiff suspension, a turbo engine, handling and sexy curves had won me over!! After being stuffed around by dealerships, finding it near impossible to find a low km example I had almost had enough... Until i met Rob and his amazingly well kept 275 Trophy, he took me for a spin showed me all the features where i had read and seen youtube videos of but never actually got to experience it in the flesh. Then he let me drive it... And i tell you what. IT WAS GLORIOUS When i actually get the car i'll throw up a post and some pictures Just an introduction for now i look forward to being more regular on this forum, I should be a proud owner by the weekend or early next week. Thanks for reading my story Steve,
