The replacment for the 'targeted' megane 225.. 3 door Tech Grey :] ! STORY ! :O

Featured Replies

Right... without going into to much detail, the 'inferno orange' 225 as seen in previous build threads has been replaced due to some undesirables targeting it, trying to steal it causing a smashed window, damaged leather seat and door card... then trying to steal it off me while i was out in it.. i.e car jacking me... and erm... after a 15 minuite chase.. 150's+ on the motorway to get off... (well in reality more like 145, clocks lie - very scary shit when you got a stolen type R JDM FN2 thingy stook touching your bumper at that speed with your beloved girlfriend sat next to you screaming!) the enevatable happened.. one word... gutted :( ending up loosing them temporarily, pulling into my destination.. couldnt find anywhere to hide, pull back out and hey presto hello asians in stolen car !! i panic'd, smashed my cars head in down a street which i knew had a speed bump towards the bottom ... but wasnt thinking straight, running off pure adrenilin... i hit the speed bump at an estimated 80mph.. and that was it.. airbourne across a junction straight into road barriers.. at least they didnt steal the car and no one was hurt.. alot of pennies out of pocket tho..

Anyway cut a long story short, 3k to repair it.. just had spent a fortune painting it.. and yeh lesson learnt, dont drive a fast car that stands out which is a 5 door (ideal to be used in a 'job') when your 19 years old and a little weed.

Anywhooo back on to subject..

I now have a 3 door megane in grey thats already been 'subtley modded' yes i did buy an older, less IN YOUR FACE one..

I also now have a 1.5 2009 JAN 58 swift aswell as a daily runner ... so basically this new megane is a track/weekend car hence not putting my self at risk !

Gosh its a sad state of affairs!

Day i got it,

Ph1 2005.. half leathers.. ph1 alloys boggo standard...

sensible thing to do would've been to drive to a police station, or to get your "beloved gf" to ring the cops. I'd've also went through as many CCTV camera's as possible on my route too.

That is really bad crack, that! Gutted for you, but at least you've gone and bought a 3 door ;) Did the dudes that were chasing you get caught in the end up??

I like the Megane, love the wheels and the lights.

panda, mine and my girlfriends mind where just poisioned by adrenilin.. we couldnt think straight or anything.. its only till it happens you see how your going to react...

anyway I'm clifford anti hi jack'd up now lol

Yeah Ant, it's fucked up the things you do in the heat of the moment.

At least you and your lass are OK. You had any greif from the Asian Gentlemen again?

its a shit hole i hate it lol.. and nope.. nothing...

apart from the machine gun exhaust, (which only sound like that when ragging it, and i save it for the track now)

no one gives it a second look, yeh it looks sweet.. but its subtle and i could pass you and you would think bahaha kid in a 1.4 epic lol

nice, atleast its not a 5door

fucking hell! sounds like a proper horrific experience. did they not give up after you sat at 150ish trying to get away?

what are the trendlines like also dude? panda has a set and i cant wait to experience them!

So they were chasing you trying to hi-jack the car, or were they just racing you and just following you for fun?

to hi-jack it if i've read rightly mate.

Trying to hijack me, i had a tip off the night before about the lads who had done my car in before ( whilst it was parked up ) .. they where flashing there lights, telling me to pull over with hand signals.. and on the motorway at one point, his bumper touched mine at full chat !

Trendlines are nice when on track, but not good for long journeys.. they are quite firm and I'm a softy lol i like plush.. however they look the dogs danglys

Should've rang the police or got your boys involved!

I've had a chase once, so I rang up my mates who joined in a couple more cars, so it was then 3 of us on one of them

jesus mate sounds bad that, manchesters a bit ruff isnt it

least your new car is 3dr and looks cool 8-)

sorry to hear about your "incident".. least your moving on. interior on the silver clios nice though! Do you drive with your fogs on now though?!

Ant, youll never learn, thats what happens when you broaden your "business" on taken grounds :lol::-p

Nah, proper shit though, you should find out of the person who tipped you off, where these gangsters live and go and put a horse head in their beds 8-)

Make sure you dont tell many people where you keep the new one, they might go round and torch it out of spite because they didnt get your last one :thumbsdown:

your 19? so your like...rich?
