Are we to expect a French-flavoured car launch season early next year? No sooner than photos were snapped of the Peugeot RCZ and 308 CC at JPJ Putrajaya – possibly going through type approval – do we have a snap of another French offering.
Reader Prem took this photo of a yellow Renault Mégane III running on trade plates near the KLIA, and the photo indicates that it’s an RS variant. Which would imply that the 250hp 2.0 litre turbocharged, six-speed manual hatchback is presumably the next item of Gallic flair slated for these shores. Sounds delectable if it is.
UPDATE: Reader Salleh also sent in this photo above of a Megane III RS parked next to a Subaru Impreza at the Dengkil R&R – considering Tan Chong brings in both Subaru and Nissan, were they Tan Chong employees on a twin test session?
