Description
2016 Renault Mégane RS 275 Trophy-R – Rare, Track-Bred Future Classic
The Mégane RS 275 Trophy-R is one of Renault Sport’s most celebrated creations – a lightweight, track-focused evolution of the already acclaimed RS 275. Only 250 units were produced worldwide, and 113 of these were left-hand drive, making it a rare and exclusive piece of Renault Sport history. One of two examples allocated in New Zealand, and possibly the only one with such low mileage and near-new condition.
Cherished by its first owner for nearly a decade and maintained with care, this example remains in exceptional condition. A full service, including gearbox oil change, was completed in August, ensuring it is as mechanically sharp as it is cosmetically.
Special Trophy-R Features
- Weight Reduction: Rear seats removed, lightweight Recaro Pole Position bucket seats, and thinner rear glass.
- Performance Hardware: Akrapovic titanium exhaust system, Öhlins adjustable dampers, Allevard composite springs, and Brembo high-performance brakes.
- Track Credentials: Nürburgring record holder for front-wheel drive cars at its launch (7:54 lap time).
- Unique Details: Special “Trophy-R” badging, numbered build plate, and distinctive styling cues that set it apart from standard RS models.
This is not just another hot hatch – it’s a true driver’s car, engineered for enthusiasts who value precision, rarity, and motorsport pedigree. If it is not already recognised as a classic, it is undoubtedly a future collectable.
