Yg84 Posted 21, March 2013 Report Share Posted 21, March 2013 Hi everyone, I am a soon to be proud owner of a new capsicum red rs265 cup, which I will be picking up from the dealer in the next couple of weeks..so bloody excited! After much lurking on the net and deliberation, the options I went for were the factory fitted electric leather seats (from the trophy plus) and the front parking sensors. It took me soooo long to decide on whether to go with the recaros, but decided on the leather "comfy" seats in the end..would be keen to hear how trophy plus owners are finding them. My current car, which my wife will be inheriting, is a 2004 Mazda 3 hatch, with the only mod being a set of 17 inch alloys. So clearly a big upgrade in terms of performance (double the torque!). I really do love that car, and being my first, am really glad to keep it in the family. Looking forward to joining the renaultsport owners fold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yg84 Posted 21, March 2013 Author Report Share Posted 21, March 2013 Thanks guys. I will be sure to post a few snaps once I have my greedy hands on it I actually haven't seen a red one in the flesh, so it was a bit of a gamble on my behalf.. Nice colour choice on the clio by the way Nemz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yg84 Posted 21, March 2013 Author Report Share Posted 21, March 2013 Thanks Crowe 8:08 how are you liking the car so far? What was the official Renault guidance on run-in procedure - hope it's not too restrictive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the official Renault guidance on run-in procedure - hope it's not too restrictive Hey mate, Loving the car so far, has a few quirks which erk me but can be overlooked for the sheer driving pleasure it offers in other areas. A bit of lumbar support would have been nice in the recaros, backlit switches surely should be standard in this day and age and the stereo is pathetic. But none of that matters when you hit the twisties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiapoco Posted 17, April 2013 Report Share Posted 17, April 2013 mmm A gloss black roof (vinyl wrap it) will REALLY set it off. Probably the only colour combo id go over the LY goodness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yg84 Posted 23, April 2013 Author Report Share Posted 23, April 2013 Thanks chiapoco.. If only LY was an option for the cup model! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
