A moment of magic. That"s what you"re looking for. On the infrequent occasion one of the performance car world"s true heroes is replaced, your impartiality can"t help but falter a little, as you cross your fingers and toes, desperate for the first tangible evidence that it"s still special. The Megane RenaultSport is one such car, yet after several hours on the road in the all-new RS 280, no moment has yet materialised. The old one left you under no illusions about how special it was. You folded yourself into a snug Recaro seat, bum right on the floor, and prodded it into life. It battered you about as soon as you pulled away, crying to be taken to a piece of road where it could show off just how supremely developed it was. Yes, it could be construed as a bit hardcore, yet here was a car despite its humble front-driven chassis that could be drinking buddies with a Porsche 911 GT3. If you"re struggling with the anthropomorphism, then their drivers have certainly been drinking buddies, sharing a steak and beer in the Pistenklause after a day of battering the N rburgring into submission in like-minded cars.
