About the Renault Megane Mk2 RS Vampire Grey Norev 1:18
TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Renault Megane Mk2 RS reproduces the hot hatch in Vampire Grey, a car known for genuinely quick lap times among its class. Diecast construction brings typical opening features. A confident, distinctive pick for a 2000s hot hatch shelf.
The Mk2 Megane's rear end split opinion the moment it launched, but the RS version backed up its unusual styling with genuine on-road pace.
Diecast Reproduction of a Distinctive Hatchback
The Mk2 Megane's rounded, bulbous tail and high-set rear lights are among the more polarizing shapes in recent hot hatch history, and diecast construction handles that unusual surfacing cleanly, with opening features typical of 1:18 scale exposing Renault Sport's more purposeful cabin behind the road car's standard dashboard. The Vampire Grey finish suits the RS variant's slightly more aggressive stance, with subtle bodywork changes that separated it from the standard Megane hatchback. Panel gaps sit a touch wider than resin construction would allow, an expected trade-off given the opening doors and hood this diecast provides.
A Hot Hatch That Earned Respect on Track
Renault Sport's Megane RS built a reputation during this generation for genuinely competitive front-wheel-drive lap times, a period when the model regularly featured in comparisons against segment rivals on demanding circuits. That performance credibility mattered more than the car's divisive styling in winning over enthusiasts, proving Renault Sport's chassis tuning could deliver results regardless of how the bodywork was received. It remains a respected chapter in Renault's hot hatch lineage, distinct in shape from both its predecessor and successor.
Placing This Megane in a Hot Hatch Run
Set beside more conventionally styled rivals, this Megane stands out immediately, a useful reminder that hot hatch history includes plenty of unconventional shapes that still delivered on performance.
