Hello from nz - 2015 rs 265

[lyrs265]

hi guys,

thanks to mate rszwei for introducing me to this forum 

last year i bought a 2015 rs265 in liquid yellow, one owner,  38,000km

nz spec includes recaros, rs monitor, 19in black + red wheels.

coming from a golf mk5 gti, the meg is a revelation 

car is stock apart from a set of michelin cup2 tyres.

Welcome from an ex-kiwi in Oz. I travel back there frequently and don't think I've ever seen a single Meg 3 RS, good to know they do exist. Enjoy. What part of the country are you in? 

[lyrs265]

hi,

i'm north of wellington.

car is ex-auckland.

there's various meg 3 rs (phase 1,2,3) scattered through both islands, including 265 redbull, 275 trophy, a couple of 275 trophy r.

Nice access to some very RS-type roads. I'm quite familiar with the Paekakariki Hill Road if you know that one. 

[lyrs265]

yes, paekak hill and rimutaka hill roads are favourites.

the meg feels a bit big on paekak though, a clio rs would be ideal.

haywards/grays road is fun too, especially at night.

bit of a nightmare getting into the capital at the moment.

major road works at otaki and mckays crossing/ transmission gully - that road should be a great drive when it opens in 2020.

and the new kapiti expressway needs $25m of resealing after only a year !
