thanh Posted 20, April 2012 Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 Hello All I am new on the forum and guess what, I'm looking to purchase a Clio 172 or Megan's 225. Any advice from you guys would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exar Kun Posted 20, April 2012 Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 Welcome. You'll find the forum a very friendly and knowledgeable place. In terms of local Canberra people. Luis from Alpine Motors in Phillip is a French car specialist and his work is excellent. If you're looking at a 172 then Bryan (evilb66 here on the forums) is a great local source of help and knowledge. He'll be able to help out with many things including spare parts.

walkie86 Posted 20, April 2012 Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 Welcome mate. The 172 and 225 are quite different beasts. What are you looking for in your new car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thanh Posted 20, April 2012 Author Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 Thanks guys. Good to know where I should go when my Renault needs a service. As for what I am looking for in a car, I'm after a second run around that I can fang when the urge arises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkie86 Posted 20, April 2012 Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 ^ cool. I guess I meant are you after a fast, torquey, comfortable, refined hatch that's still fun but does relaxed driving well too or a fast, revvy, puppy dog that loves to play all the time?

nemz Posted 20, April 2012 Report Share Posted 20, April 2012 Welcome! As Walkie said, they're quite different in their delivery but both quite fun in the twisties. I say test drive both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
