Presenting my 2012 Renault Megane RS265. Bought it as a write off with 14XXX ks on the clock and a half cage fitted.

Why was it a write off? I don't see any obvious damage....

I've *dreamt of* renting one of these if I ever make it to the Nurburgring for a holiday. Excited to see your adventures!

Not sure why, but I like the idea of a French car. Do carry on.

In reply to MiniDave :

These cars are incredibly cheap here. I guess Aussies are intimidated by superior French engineering or smelly cheese who knows. Anyway before I handed over the cash I put it on a hoist and had a good look inside and out and the Car was immaculate.

Previous owner said it had a prang in the front and damaged the front bar and the damage bill was too high for insurance to repair it. My guess after looking at the car it's gone through a fence or something as there is evidencing of scraping the undercarriage but that'll buff out once I hit the sand traps
