Does anyone know much about these cars?
I went to look at one today, looked nice but what about mechanics?
Got any stories about them etc...

I don't have experience of them, but I like the special edition ones, the Blue one, and the new Yellow one.

I like them, mainly the Trophy ones and the new limited edition ones. Being a Renault though I can imagine the electronics being a bit fragile.

Been told the origional version was ok but the trophy version and the new F1 with the diff are very good cars.
Mainly down to the suspension and dynamics.I really like them TBH

I've sat in one and thought the seats seemed ok if that counts 
Styling is a bit though

Not badly built as past Renults but at the end of the day its a great car, highly rated by Evo magazine and has the important factor of being fun to drive which most people forget to look for in a car these days.

the ones with the diffs are meant to be a far superior car to the original. they are a pretty car less garish than an st or vxr. new limited editions are future classics imo yellow ones stunning

you need to ask yourself if you can take the constant 'ass shaking' comments you'll get from 50+ yr old women who think it's funny.
