Buying help?

Postby jim123321 » Mon Apr 05, 2010 1:54 am

Hi i currently own my Megane CC Dynamique 54 reg 1.6, which i love!!
Im looking at getting another one for my next car, its definitely going to be a privilege version in black/grey but my question is which year to go for?
Im torn between 2006 and 2007, they seem exactly the same yet the 2006 version is almost £2000 cheaper, is this simply because the 2007 is newer?
Is there any major differences between both years e.g. problems, my 54 CC had the dephaser problem, a window problem and two of the suspension springs went.
Even though I had these problems I still think its a brilliant car and i want another!
Are there any known problems at all in both the 2006 and 2007 models?
Also i want a bigger engine, my 1.6 is nice and keeps up with most car's with the same specs but i want a bit more acceleration and maybe a higher top speed but the acceleration is the main thing!
Diesel or petrol?
Which one should i be looking for?
Thanks in advance!

In 2006 came the facelift (so some 2006 models will be pre, the majority are post). In 2007 (not sure on a date) they removed some standard kit (perhaps not from the Priv spec).

I'd only start considering a diesel if you do over 12k miles a year.
