Hi all.

We've had ours for around a month, knocked up best part of 1500mls already. Just an 84000 service and a minor prob with aircon, which was on the car when we got it. 1.5dci 86 06 plate, Gold... One of the best drives I've had! Fairly nippy for an 86 horse and showing 58+mpg's on a run! I used to have a Proton Wira 1.6Lxi 5dr hatch. Nice enough, but the phrase "chalk & cheese" springs to mind!!! Hoping to keep for years to come...

Yes, I know... 06 plate and over 84000mls... :shock: Got it at a good price. Done all the checks, etc. Full Renault service history. Cambelt done, no outstanding recalls, HPI clear, no insurance issues, etc etc... Couldn't say no really! :rock

105 k on the clock and still going strong. Had her from just under 12months old.
For all those with new Meganes they can be reliable.
53 reg 1.9 DCI priveleg.
Problems i've had very few.
Door sensor fixed under warranty.
Exhaust snapped week i got it fixed under warranty, surprisingly same one is still going strong!!
Drivers window motor.
Serviced till 72k when cambelt and water pump were replaced. Since then i've serviced it myself.
Tyres 3rd set on front. Set just replaced had done 50k (cheapest of cheap millenium set).
Rear tyres still on 2nd set and got over 3mm on both.
Brakes and pads i believe are still original(i can't believe that) but i keep all receipts for parts etc and have no record of these, plus thats something i would do myself and don't recall ever changing them.
New set of glow plugs and 1 new battery last year.
Oh and 3 passenger headlight bulbs!(makes up for all time i don't spend under her)
I think thats it, she's passed every MOT, although came close to a fail once on the horn not loud enough, luckily mechanic fixed it with some impact engineering
Does 48 mpg constantly in warmer weather even with my heavy foot every so often.
So for all those with doubts after buying a Megane they can be reliable.
Getting twitchy for a new car but only because i want a change not because of anything wrong, i'll see how long she lasts starting to get fond of the old girl
