The limited edition Megane Renaultsport Red Bull Racing RB8

The Formula One World Championship winning partners have again joined forces by making just 30 Megane Renaultsport Red Bull Racing RB8s available to the U.K. market, priced at £28,245 (S$54,557).

The flagship Megane Renaultsport takes its inspiration from Red Bull Racing's Formula One identity, featuring an exclusive Twilight Blue finish with Platinum Grey detail.

Packed with cutting edge technology, the only thing missing is wings. The striking hot hatch includes Recaro seats, R-Link Multimedia system and TomTom Live navigation system, Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tyres, plus the latest on-board Renaultsport Monitor v2.0.

The exciting opportunity to own just one of 30 destined for the U.K. follows hot on the heels of the first images and details of Renault's 2014 Formula One engine - the 1.6-litre V6 turbocharged Energy F1-2014 - that was unveiled at the Paris Air Show.

The exclusive Twilight Blue finish takes its inspiration directly from the race team's famous colours. In addition to its sporty credentials, it stands out as particularly elegant, too, thanks to exterior Platinum details (F1 blade, door handles, door mirror housing and rear lip spoiler), which contrast with the striking Twilight Blue paintwork. Last but not least, a monochrome laurel on the rear side windows celebrates the team's 2012 Constructors' world title.

Inside, the new limited edition version comes with a number of exclusive features, including Red Bull Racing branding on the numbered aluminium kickplates and carpet mats. The same logo appears on the headrests of the Recaro front seats, which are trimmed in a new leather/fabric upholstery.

The limited edition version packs the same fundamental features as Megane Renaultsport 265 Cup, including stiffer springs, dampers and anti-roll bar, a limited slip differential, grooved discs with red Brembo front callipers and the potent 2.0-litre turbocharged 265bhp engine with Stop&Start and trademark Renaultsport technologies.
