All I can comment on is sitting in one. And it seemed quite nice inside. Couldn't tell you what it was like to drive though

I saw a poncey looking tosser drive past me in a convertable megane with sunglasses on, roof down and tunes pumping.
I immediately thought what a fucking cunt.

They look pretty cool in yellow! 
It is the 230 F1 version he is getting right?

EDIT: Strange hand brake as well

Especially in this colour.

To be honest, if I had the money to get something like an Astra VXR/Focus ST/Megane 230, I'd have to test drive all of them, extensively. I don't think it'd be as clear cut as people think, not imho anyway.

I do like, with both the Megane and Clio how they have single DIN stereo's, so it is just a straight swap for a better, MP3/WMA unit.
