looking at going from a E46 M3 to a 225

Post by juan1 »

I going away from my m3 e46 and been looking at a 225 or audi a3 or a cupra r.
the 225 looks good value for the money you can pick one up for.
what problems do I need to look out for.
would people stay away from high mileage ones?
whats the common thing to go on them?
any other info would be good, ie what servicing I need to look out for / does it matter if its not full Renault service?
cheers guys

Look for a decent rs250 cup - they are remapable to 300ps without much trouble, plus LSD is great. High mileage? - No. Get something around 20k miles.
