Happy new Megane GT owner

[8nobody8]

Hi there. Got my new Megane GT on thursday. Could not be happier. Never experienced service like that of the Seaford Renault dealership and I’m completely in LOVE with my car ❤️

Welcome. EDC = not for me, but glad you're enjoying your Meg. They certainly look lovely in Malta Blue.

It's bizarre that the RS280 didn't come in this colour - it looks great. Congrats!

Hello and welcome. I sat in a GT last year and played around with it a bit. Not my cup of tea but it didn't made a bad impression.

At least over here the colour is called Iron-Blue (TE RQH). Malta-Blue (TE RNT) is the Gordini colour.

I was told that this colour was reserved for the Megane GT and certain Clios. Renault's decision are often not understandable. I for example don't get why Bamboo-Green isn't available for RS models. It would surely look good and could have been the direct successor of AG.

You're right, it is Iron Blue. 

We had a Clio GT 1.2 available here for a while which came in Malta and the previous Megane 3 GT220 also came in Malta.

They certainly look great in Iron Blue - never seen one in Malta Blue.

Saw a dealer RS280 the other day - first RS4 I've seen as well.

Good to see a few of the new ones on the road

Cheers

That's possible because the traitors at Renault have used it for certain GT (Line) versions before. I say traitors because Malta-Blue is actually the (modern) Gordini colour and should therefore be reserved only to said editions in my opinion. They could have easily gone with Albi-Blue (Monaco-Blue) instead which isn't that different but no special edition colour.

Looks like Iron Blue is the deepest blue, then Albi-Blue - then Alpine Blue. Would that be a fair assessment ?

All good strong shades.

Welcome aboard.  I like the silver highlights on the side mirrors.

Thanks Guys. It is the iron blue metallic. I really wanted the orange of the R.S. but that’s limited to that car for now!  And I’d loose my license driving that car for sure!!
