Renault’s latest addition to the all-conquering Renaultsport family has arrived...the awesome New Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy.

The Mégane Renaultsport 250 drew massive praise from car buyers and the motorsport press alike, winning the Best Hot Hatch category in the 2010 and 2011 What Car? ‘Car of the Year’ awards. The Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy is a stunning evolution of this same blueprint which has attained so much success and popularity.

Boasting an increase in power output, as the name suggests, to 265hp, the Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy will be available in a choice of two colour options – Renault i.d. Liquid Yellow or Diamond Black. Delivering sensational performance and handling, this is a car to deliver on every level.

Acceleration from 0-62mph can be achieved in just six seconds, the car produces 360 NM of torque and the maximum speed is a cool 158mph. Each New Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy will also come fitted with high performance Bridgestone RE050A tyres, perfectly complementing the gorgeous black 19-inch Speedline alloys with red rim.

You’ll have to act fast if you wish to become an owner, only 50 examples of the car will go on sale in the UK making the latest member of the Renaultsport family a highly sought-after and very exclusive purchase. The car will be priced at £27,820 with a new Diamond Black roof option available for an additional £415.

Each owner of a New Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy will enjoy access to all the UK Renaultsport track days in 2012 which is worth approximately £600 – a fantastic bonus to enable maximum enjoyment of the full performance on offer.

A Mégane Renaultsport 265 Trophy will be on display at the British round of the World Series by Renault at Silverstone over the weekend 20/21 August.

Still rather drive a Euro Cup Trophy

Looks like it would be fun but not sure I'd part with 27k for a renault!

I wouldn't say £27k is bad considering the spec against the competition.

Looks a nice car but IMO wait or a year old one for 15-18k...As said above, 27k for a bloody megane is shocking.

as said, i'd rather bite the bullet and buy a 2nd hand faster car for the money still it's nice to see them producing "sport" cars rather than following the "ooooooo no save the planet brigade"
