2003 Renault Megane Sport Tourer Elegance 1.6 16v petrol from Sweden
Summary:
Smooth, nice, likeable, roomy family estate
Faults:
Had to replace battery.
Adjusted steering wheel - balance of front wheels. (my fault, I hit something when I drove...)
General Comments:
Very roomy inside with nice quality materials. Easy to adjust to a good drive position.
Very comfortable to drive. Soft and smooth. Could be even smoother, I have 16" alloy wheels, but still smoother than most german cars.
Easy on the ear, low noise. A bit low geared so some engine noise comes on the motorway, I would welcome a higher 5th gear - or a 6 geared transmission.
Clutch feels a bit "on and off", and not as smooth as my previous Laguna.
Good heat in the winter, nice ECC - climate control for the hot summer days. Well equipped with cruise control and electric windows. Driver's seat with adjustable lumbar support, a must for me.
Good fuel consumption, high mileage. Low running costs.
Feels reliable.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
