Default Renualt Twingo/Twin Z Concept

So the "2L's is only good for milk" crowd can perhaps not bother reading on but Ive been noticing this little car popping up in the news lately.

http://www.carsales.com.au/news/2013...-concept-35993

http://www.carsales.com.au/news/2013...ome-here-36477

Now, thats not to much to get excited about, until you start reading that it is rumoured to be RWD and rear engined!

So then enter the following;

Renualt have a habit of making some pretty decent FWD cars, have a rich history with the Renault 5 and it turbo version. Dont know, I am looking forward to seeing what Renualtsport can do and what the RRP would be if the base model is aiming at the VW UP!

It all has the potenital to add up to a bit of fun.

Must say I'm a fan of the Megane Sport Trophy 265. 195kw, looks pretty good. If I was in the market for a new car, this would likely be it, other than a Mustang or GT of coarse

Yeap the megane is a little beastie, just like the Focus RS, this thing is a bit different again; it would be an interesting drive.

hmm last time I will bump it, but how is this not cool. Im only guessing but on such a short chassis it would be pretty twitchy?
