megane has no radio, plastic windows, no rear seats, tyres that'll kill you in the wet

if the focus had all the , it would be faster.

I can't help but find it pointless paying more for a Megane that is track prepped. Surely it'd be cheaper to buy one fully loaded, sell all that for big profit, then put a cage in?

Yeah but that's what I'm saying, you take the bits off, which will be brand new, so sell for big money, and buy a setup which will probably be better than the one they sell it with, and have saved a fuck load of money?

what broster said, you buy it from the show room and then drive the tits off it! No stripping the interior and selling it on ebay and fucking about with a cage

Plus you'll have a warranty that must include "ragging the shit out of it".

Agreed, also things like the cage are an option, you dont have to have these for it to be quicker than the focus. Renault know the market and are simply giving customers the option as many will take it.
