Visitors to Autosport International show at the Birmingham NEC this weekend were the first in the UK to see the new Mégane Renaultsport 225 in the metal.

Renault already had an impressive show line-up, with last season's FIA Formula 1 World Championship-winning R25 appearing alongside the Mégane Trophy race car.

Not only are there no price increases for the revised Mégane Renault sport 225 range, even with more standard equipment like climate control, full leather interior and 60W CD/MP3 RDS radio on the Mégane Renaultsport 225, for example, but there is a new special edition designed to celebrate the company's Formula One success last season.

Possibly the most apt form of everyday, practical transport for motor sport fans, the new Mégane Renaultsport 225 Renault F1 Team special edition comes with 60W CD/MP3 RDS radio, climate control, Cup Chassis (includes Brembo front brakes, disconnectable ESP, exclusive Dunlop SportMaxx tyres, uprated dampers and springs), new "black-gloss" 18" spoked lightweight alloys with matching door mirrors and Recaro front sports seats.

Emphasising the car's motor sport roots, the latest addition to the Renaultsport stable also features unique Renault F1 Team decals and badging on the front wings and front and rear bumpers, plus a numbered plaque at the base of the centre console.
