    The old man has a Mk.4 Anniversary TDi with the 150 engine as a run about, 123,000mls. and never missed a beat, regular servicing and annual cleaning of the turbo bits sees to that - touch wood!

    Anyway GregorJP, I thought this car was your wife's? I'm sure she will get a lot of benefit from it having Renaultsport suspension, did you let her choose the colour?

      Mk 4 TDI is a great car. Quick too.

      Correct, it's her company car, but in winter I won't use the CSL. The last time she chose her company car we ended up with an Audi A3 1.6 TDI economy version...

      I had to do a sales job on the renaultsport suspension in the same way that I have to persuade her to ride shotgun in the CSL with the noise, bumpy ride, squealy brakes and erratic driving. I'm also in the process of persuading her that me buying an E36 M3 track car is a good idea...:beer:

        Ladies, just an update on this - took delivery of the Megane this week and I have to say that as a family runabout, it's pin sharp and so much more fun than the Golf we looked at. Very stiff suspension and respectable turn of speed. In fact, I can see why people rave about the Megane Cup.

        Meantime, I have not managed to get the CSL off the drive. Snow and Cups don't mix. :banghead:
