Doesn't look like this had the timing chain done.... but still intriguing I dint realize they had 263 HP & 280 lb/ft..... bet the thing is fun AF.... and its the loaded Grand TOuring edition..... if it had half the miles, a cross continental flight might have been in my future....

I’d have to do a bit of research but in my recollection that motor doesn’t reach 6 figures. Also these cars are really small inside, smaller than a mk6 by quite a bitIrish wrote: ↑Fri Jul 23, 2021 1:36 pm Doesn't look like this had the timing chain done.... but still intriguing I dint realize they had 263 HP & 280 lb/ft..... bet the thing is fun AF.... and its the loaded Grand TOuring edition..... if it had half the miles, a cross continental flight might have been in my future....

Have some few thoughts to upgrade from the Clio, but definitely not anytime soon. No complaints, other than to upsize. Using a Greek website instead of turkish since it tends to get borked. Google chrome translates
Megane hatch, either 1.5 diesel or the same engine as my clio (1.3t gas engine).
https://www.car.gr/classifieds/cars/vie ... ult-megane
The diesel (1.5t to be exact), a bit of a downgrade from Clio in terms of 0-100. There's also a 2 liter version as well, but being not potentially a great seller in Turkey since taxes on the 2 liters and up are atrocious, they're quite rare and also way too expensive.
https://www.car.gr/classifieds/cars/vie ... eugeot-508
The gas version, 1.6t with 180 hp (which is quite a lot for Turkey). 0-100 7.9 seconds. Don't like the wheels on this particular one doe.

They're still the same size as the clio for interior space and they're dangerously slow, 11.5 0-60 at bestCaleDeRoo wrote:Citroen Cactus thingy

Me too. Still a very good contender and reasonably priced than the rest of the competition.wap wrote:I red Pug.
I promised myself if I get a car for Turkey, it has to be something thats not sold in the US.

No idea what this thing is worth, but seems super clean with only 40k miles. Had no idea these could come with

Yea that’s a solid idea. I really liked the Megane Rs 260. But I’m assuming you don’t want something that expensiveMexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 6:48 amMe too. Still a very good contender and reasonably priced than the rest of the competition.wap wrote:I red Pug.
