It’s now the norm for manufacturers to leak images of new cars before a motor show, and Renault is carrying on this new tradition by releasing a sneak-peek minisite for the upcoming 2009 Renaultsport Megane.

All that is shown is a ghostly outline of the car and a countdown to its appearance at the Genava Motor Show on 3rd March.

There are no details yet as to what will be under the bonnet, but with the Focus RS now pushing out 300bhp you can expect Renault to be chasing a similar target.
