The French is up for sale.

2012 Megane 8:08 special edition. This is the version that did the Nurburgring in 8:08 in "stock" form.

78,000km(ish) and dead stock other than the black vinyl roof (GT Graphics), Nexen tyres and Hawk Ceramic brake pads. Serviced by Galvsport/Fleetpro for most of it's life, although it did start off being serviced by Renault.
The gearbox mounts have been replaced under warranty (liquid filled bushes let go) and a speaker was replaced that was a little crackly, but other than that it has been faultless.
All 4 wheels have a fair bit of rash, and the bolsters of the leather Recaro's have wear on them and there is one of two carpark dings, otherwise the car is in very nice shape.

I have lapped Barbs short in 61.7 in it not long after we picked it up, but have never tried bettering my time. I'd say it has low 60's in it, high 59's with decent tyres, pads etc. Have done numerous sessions out at Midvale Speeddome in it and come out with a grin every time. The LSD and electric steering in it are fucking superb. There's a slight tug of torque steer, but not enough to disturb your lines. It was way more fun than my old 350z around there.

Will be sad as fuck to see it go. If it doesn't sell by Targa West next year, I may do the challenge category in it.

28K is what the wife is asking. Offers considered, lowballs will receive goatsee pics in reply.

Price dropped to $26,500

Interior is now freshly detailed, and it will cop a fresh coat of Dodo Juice in the coming week.

Unfortunately not. Only ended up with enough to payout the remaining finance and a carton of beer to drown the sorrows.

This was clearly an excellent sales strategy, I must remember this if selling things online in future.
