smokeituptippy Posted 23, November 2007 Author Report Share Posted 23, November 2007 Long story the 'tippy' name! ...........and for the record, I am not likely to smoke up the Cup. I don't drive it to drag race, I like the 'on rails' handling and how smooth it is to drive. IMO, best by far in this category. I just hope that the Turbo/Cooling System is up to the task in our heat here in Perth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeituptippy Posted 23, November 2007 Author Report Share Posted 23, November 2007 Arno, what are you driving? I saw a Yellow RS226 the other day in Scarborough. Mine in for it's first service Wednesday. Long drive next weekend which I am looking forward to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arno Posted 24, November 2007 Report Share Posted 24, November 2007 I have an rs 26 but that wasn't me. I am unable to drive at the moment because of an accident on a scooter. I'll keep my eye open for you. I have only done 4300kms in three months. That is because the car has been immobile for a month and maybe another month. I have seen a black rs26 in Northbridge buts thats it lately. My old blue 225 is still at wanneroo euro for sale. The other day I saw two std meganes one blue and one white.What part of perth do you live? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeituptippy Posted 24, November 2007 Author Report Share Posted 24, November 2007 I noticed the Blue 225 at the Yard. That's where I purchased mine from. I live in Bassendean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R26DAVE Posted 24, November 2007 Report Share Posted 24, November 2007 Welcome to the forum Mate !! Try to get some picts up in the "Members Rides" section soon, and make sure you drop in to the Megane section for some friendly banter.......... Cheers - Dave.

smokeituptippy Posted 27, November 2007 Author Report Share Posted 27, November 2007 Thanks INOV8. How long have you had your Cup? Happy with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INOV8 Posted 28, November 2007 Report Share Posted 28, November 2007 Thanks INOV8.How long have you had your Cup? Happy with it? Had it for 6 months now...........its been great apart from an ECU that needed replacing under warranty. Don't worry the service department assured me that it is a very uncommon problem. But she is great none the less. I am sure you will enjoy yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeituptippy Posted 29, November 2007 Author Report Share Posted 29, November 2007 What happened with the ECU? i.e. What were the symptoms? Reason I ask, is that I have had a situation twice where when I have started the car it revved quite high for 15" then settled back to normal idle??

arno Posted 3, December 2008 Report Share Posted 3, December 2008 I have had my rs26 for just over a year and it is still as much fun as the day I got it ..... maybe that's a bit extreme cos I was a bit excited that day! Anyway I have had no problems with this one at all!. Blue is a great colour and I miss my blue one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
