gson Posted 21, September 2010 Report Share Posted 21, September 2010 Hello all. Being new to this forum i will just write a short post leading up to the Google search "Renault car forums" My girlfriend and i having just moved up to Brisbane in a non air-conditioned car have spend a number of months trying to find a car. As it turned out trying to get something that appeases the desires of two rather pedantic people is not easy. In searching for a car we had to satisfy a number of criteria A) didn’t make her feel like a tramp (apparently jap cars do this)???? B) gave me something that i deemed an "intellectual buy that shows character" and that didn’t leave me with the feeling I would get if i had just bought an iphone C) And something that is fun to drive..... Because it’s all about the smile! D) Didn’t cost the earth The end result of the above happens to be a Renault Megane Sport and after having the car for a number of weeks now and am stoked! So just hi to everybody and cheers for this resource Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R26DAVE Posted 21, September 2010 Report Share Posted 21, September 2010 Welcome gson ! A good place to say g'day is the Newbies section. Maybe a good idea to start a thread there. People can say hello to you there, and also start demanding to see pictures of your new wheels, which if not forthcoming, may result in dire consequences (j/k) .....they have a word for it.......it escapes me now......someone will surely help..... Cheers - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Posted 26, September 2010 Report Share Posted 26, September 2010 Hi Pete welcome aboard. If only ever other buyer took such measures...we'd all be driving Renault Sports. (sheep not included) Come out to one the drive days if you're keen... should help stretch the legs a little further, meet all, and guaranteed to get pics (or ban). Cheers, WOLF (sometimes in sheep's clothing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmadrid-182 Posted 8, December 2010 Report Share Posted 8, December 2010 welcome gson! loved the mt tambourine roads when I visited there for a holiday and that was in a Astra.. I can only imagine how great it would be to drive in the Meggy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Posted 8, December 2010 Report Share Posted 8, December 2010 THAT is a good picture indeed. Makes it look even better and a nice reflection gives it a "chrome tinted windscreen" look. All good, and see you out there. Cheers, WOLF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
