Renault Megane 1.9 dCi Privelege

Hired a brand new one of these on a recent holiday in france and have to say this car really impressed me. The moment that you get in the car the build quality really stands out. It's really firm and well put together - almost reminded me of a BMW type quality. Then one other point is the air conditioning / vents system - it's truly the best that I have ever known - it's v powerful and produces cool fresh air within seconds.

The drive is great too - although being a diesel it's v powerful and the engine is quiet. Steering is firm and the overall ride is solid - the build quality keeps the road noise low.

I was very impressed with this car and clearly renaults have come far in recent time. Not overly sure about the cost as clearly wasn't buying but have to say was well impressed and whatever you pay you do get a lot.

For a couple or small family who do not want to compromise on space or performance you can have your cake and eat away with the Renault Megane 1.9 dCi Privilege. Enjoyable driving, great performance and more than sufficient interior space make this a winner at the purchase cost. Running costs are miserly as well and the car is not demanding on the pocket. The real dazzler though is the feisty 130bhp engine coupled with an excellent 6 speed gearbox that lets you forget this is a diesel. At over 90 mph it purrs along at 2500 revs and is a pleasure to drive. In traffic it retains the nippiness one expects from a three door hatch and still delivers excellent fuel economy. So impressed was I with car I cashed in the 4x4 guzzler and bought a second one...need I say more?
