The Gloss Black diffuser adds to the car’s sporty appeal and is suggestive of the phenomenon of ground effect associated with the world of Formula 1. The cabin boasts a dark charcoal trim with contrasting Pearlescent White highlights, plus embroidered “Monaco GP” badging for the seats and carpet mats. The glass roof ensures a brightly lit interior whatever the time of year.

Monaco in brief
The limited edition Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Monaco GP symbolises Renault’s historic association with the Automobile Club de Monaco.
Ever since François Repusseau’s win on the Monte Carlo Rally in 1925 driving a Renault 40CV, the two partners have been united by common values and the same passion for motorsport.
A long-standing highlight of the Formula 1 season, the Monaco Grand Prix has been won on numerous occasions by Renault-powered cars (and most recently in 2011 by Sebastian Vettel). To help groom the F1 champions of tomorrow, Renault Sport also organises a Formula Renault 3.5 Series race through the streets of the Principality.

First introduced in 2010 for Laguna Coupé, followed by Mégane Coupé and Mégane R.S. in 2011, the luxury Monaco GP signature targets customers seeking a combination of sporty styling and elegance.
The new limited edition version will be marketed in 12 countries and will go on sale in France today. Price is €32.800

Making Its Mark: The IMPRINT RLS The birth of the IMPRINT RLS marks the beginning of a new sonic era. While the exterior flaunts a sleek, elegant, one-of-a-kind style, the interior also houses the core Alpine IMPRINT sound technology – making its mark as the absolute show-stopping vehicle for 2007. The IMPRINT RLS by birthright started off as a Mercedes Benz R500 , and was slowly morphed into a car that transcends all laws of space and time.
