Ive had my Renault Megane 1.6 Privilege (And lets face it....it isnt one) for 14 months. In that time, my costs for maintenance (excluding monthly repayments and fuel) have worked out at around 200 per month! Ive had to have a new gearbox, two new timing belts - two replacements of ignition coil sets plus numerous other items - and I still need to get the aircon fixed because the compressor has failed. How, I am ever going to get rid of this burden - I really dont know - I could never sell it privately - it would have to be a part exchange - there is no other way I could do it.
