I have owned my megane now for over ten years have over 160000 miles on the engine. main problem would be the electric windows but they can be easily fixed for about £50 a door. but I do change the oil every 9000 miles. this car as given me great serviced and don't know how I will replace it when the time comes

In 2009 I bought a used Renault Megane 1.9Dci (2005) with 27k miles on the clock. I paid £6k for it and initially was very pleased with the car and it's performance. It gets plenty of mpg, and is actually a really nice car to drive.
But then the problems started. First the electrics started to go. The electrics in the driver window failed and needed to be fixed. Renault agreed to pay 50% of the bill. The glow plugs need to be replacement on a reglular basis (check injection message will appear on the trip computer)
Then, with 76k miles on the clock, the megane started to burn an alarming aount of oil. I replaced the oil filter and gave it a good flush out. But to no avail. One week later the Turbo blew on it. This can cost from £600 to £1000 to replace.
I ended up selling it on for virtually nothing after doing a lot of research on the web and came to the conclusion that the blown turbo was only the beginning of the problems.

Before you buy a Renault Megane (03 onwards), PLEASE PLEASE do some research on the web and I guarantee you will look elsewhere. Just do a search for "Renault Megane turbo failure" or "Renault Megane engine failure" and you will see just how common this problem is with the Renault Megane.
If I could go back in time I would never have bought it and I can assure you I will never buy another Renault.

really nice car when first purchased from johnston yar dealer in knock, belfast, soon turned out to be the worst car i have ever owned. terrible mpg, 25!over £2000 of repairs needed, after being told it had a full service history!mot was done by seller, not worth the paper it was written on,car broke down days later.maybe i was just conned by dodgey dealer, i really wanted this to be a good car, never again, i sold it and got a ford.

Would definitely buy it again. Worth every penny. Espacialy liked it's low runnig cost and quality for money, far better than renault 307 or 206 that I owned.
