Hi,
I'm about buying a second hand Megane hatchback of 2004 or 2005.
My question is if it would be underpowered with this engine or are 98 HP enogh to move dinamically more than 1100kg (I think the sedan is even heavier, but correct me if I'm wrong)
Please help me by telling your evaluations on the 1.4
Thanks
Gabesz

Re: 1.4 engine - enough?
For most situations, it is plenty. As said above, there is a noticeable surge from just under 4000 rpm, so overtaking is not that dicey if you're sensible. However, I largely drive my car alone but when it is full of people, you certainly are more aware that it is a small-engined car.
