TC Euro Cars (TCEC), the sole distributor of Renault vehicles in Malaysia announced the delivery of the 100th unit of Megane RS 250 Cup in Malaysia yesterday. This event marked a major milestone for Renault Sport in Malaysia as Malaysia ranked 3rd behind Japan and Australia in terms of volume sales of the Megane RS in Renault’s markets in Asia & Oceania.
The lucky new owner, Mr Barani Shanmugam received an exclusive ORIS wristwatch and 2 private driver training sessions by Kegani Racing – an established chassis and suspension tuning center and successful race team for Mr Barani to make full use of his new purchase. When asked why he chose the Megane RS 250 Cup, he simply said: “I researched and test drove many performance cars in this segment and nothing came close to the balance of handling and performance of the Megane RS 250. On top of that, the car is great value for money given the high levels of equipment on the car – the RS Monitor, the Brembo Brakes, the Recaro Seats, the Mechanical LSD, Cup Chassis – no other competitor offers all of this in this price range. Also I read a lot of auto magazines and YouTube videos comparing the Megane RS with other performance cars in it’s segment and the Megane beat them all. There is nothing anyone can criticize about the car. It’s just that good!”
TCEC is happy to be able to share the Renault Sport passion with so many enthusiasts in Malaysia. Since the launch of the Megane RS 250 Cup at the end of 2010, it has been unanimously acclaimed by enthusiasts as one of the best performance hatches money can buy. Testament to the engineering magic of Renault Sport, the Megane RS 250 Cup still holds the Sepang Circuit Lap Record of 2:43.02, for a showroom stock standard car with road going tires with no other official attempt by other manufacturers to best that time.
Value adding to the Renault Sport ownership experience, TCEC also organizes a series of Track Days (6 days in total for 2012) exclusively for Renault Sport owners to fully exploit the limits of their cars. The Renault Sport Track Days are designed for Renault Sport owners to truly appreciate the engineering excellence of their cars in a safe and controlled environment, whilst still creating some healthy competition amongst owners to achieve the fastest lap time of the day. TCEC’s heartiest congratulations to Mr Barani and welcome to the Renault Sport family!
