Yes, definitely! It is really comfortable and is cheap to run. Handling, brakes, and pedals are responsive, really enjoyable to drive. Although I'm happy with this engine next time I will go for a 1.9 DCI for a bit more power. In town, I manage 40mpg and 51mpg on the motorway. For a 1,500 kg car that is superb!

I needed cheap car quick and stumbled on my little 1.6 rag top. £495 with a years ticket, full service history and 1 owner.I haven't stopped having fun. What a marvellous driving car, the road holding is fantastic. People say the 1.6 lacks poke! Get a 2 litre then. For me this little 1.6 gives plenty, especially on our UK roads. Although the dash is a little plain, the leather seats are comfortable and the heater is almost hot enough to cook your dinner on. As i grow used to the body styling the pleasing it is on the eye. The back seats have proven to be plenty big enough for all but my 6ft tall son. If you can find a good one, buy it.

Traded my 2003 Scenic 1.4 in for the new 2004 Megane II 1.6 Privilege family car. In retrospect, I miss the Scenic's versatility which is the benchmark in the MPV industry. The Megane offers a totally different drive with the emphasis on style, safety and super smooth driving. It offers more leg, head and boot space than any car in the C class marketed in South Africa. VW, Opel and Ford - eat your heart out: come learn how to produce a practical, safe vehicle that oozes style. I'm very glad to say that Renault South Africa also provide superior, accessible after sales service too.

Good points about the Renault Megane 1.6 Privilege are its interior quality, value for money, style & looks and safety.

I have owned a Renault megaine for 3 years now and think it is a fantastic car. The safety features are one of the best in its class in South Africa, value for money is excellent, maintenance is cost effecient, space, extras, car sound package, everything is exceptional.
<br>In short. . . . . . .a car that is exceptional. Feel free to contact me with comments and/or concerns.

Thinking of buying one for our daughter who is pregnant - safety is of importance so is value for money - you've obviously been pleased - others are putting us off, we've just had big problems with a peugot 1.1 don't need more expense if this turns out to be a problem - any advise would be welcome - she's looking at a 1.6 Diamatique.
