I managed to get two of the finest front wheel drive performance cars ever made in the same picture! In the foreground, there's the delightful Renault Megane RS - I think it was a 265, specifically - and in the background, a DC5 Integra Type R, which I do thankfully have a close-ish shot of from another day.

Woo!

Not the biggest Renault fan after some of the issues we've had with ours, but man I love their RS stuff. If I could afford to run it, I'd seriously consider a Clio 197.

Tell me more about these cheese sandwhiches.

I think they're the right cheese sandwiches for you.

The Clio 197 is a fantastic car. The 182 isn't too shabby either, though I hear the cambelt's an arse to service - and, as such, exceedingly expensive if you don't want to do it yourself - on the air con equipped models.

Most modernish Renault's have ridiculous cambelt changes. Our Laguna cost £600 and only the dealer could do it, a competent mechanic we like refused to even touch it due to the risk of damaging the engine.
