These cars are crap if i could have given it 0 stars i would have, electrics crap car locking and opening itself all the time, i need a key fob to start it and a different 1 to lock it, my driver side door fell of and after fixing the problem it is almost ready to fall of again, my injectors have went twice in two weeks, only thing good about these cars is the cheap tax and easy on fuel, if cars goes over 45 it will shake and rattle no point on taking 1 of these onto motorway anyone thinking of buying 1 of these keep your money in your pockets as you will have nothing but problems with it and i have researched the problems and i am told they are all the same, BUY AN AUDI

Driving this car now two years and have to say the best car iv drove for fuel economy low tax and hassle free driving . If you are looking for value for money new Renault megane is hard to beat.

This was my second renault megane (bought in 2012) - my first ever car being a renault megane approx 10 years ago! I've been lucky to drive many 'high grade' company cars, but with a change in career, this was my first personal purchase of a car. The car looked really sporty, was very comfortable to drive, but one of the best things was its low running costs - diesel version. It fell into a low tax bracket and the insurance was very palatable! This is a fantastic car, with all the style of a car twice its price!

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.

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.

I owned a megane back in 2001 and then changed to ford and vauxhall over the last 10 years but im glad im back with Renault, the overall car is fantastic brilliant spec sat nav and bluetooth and im gettin over 60mpg on a combined cycle and never had one bit of bother compared to my ford and vauxhall which were in the worshop two or three times in the first year. If your after value for money and a great driving car its hard to look beyond the Megane diesel
