Renault Megane Cabriolet (2006 - 2009) 1.6 VVT Privilege 2d (2006/56) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Young and stylish.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Everybody loves the car and they are all surprised how quiet the engine is and how huge the boot is. Always get compliments on its appearance.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes, definitely! It is really comfortable and is cheap to run.

What are you likely to buy next?

Once I change I will get the same model just younger, 1.9 diesel maybe with cruise control.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£4,300

When did you buy the car?

November 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Considering the age, milage, and trim level, yes.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

For my second car, I wanted a 4-seater hard top convertible.

What was the dealer like?

Bit pushy but professional.

What's it like to drive?

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 motorway. For a 1,500 kg car that is superb!

What's it like to park?

Once you get your head around the boot corners and size, you will be fine. You can get one with parking sensors.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing in this half year ownership.

What's most practical about your car?

The huge boot size when the roof is up.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The foldable hard top of course :) Secondly the rain sensor, light sensor and built-in sat-nav.
