2000 Renault Megane RTE review from Turkey
"Very high performance that I want"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The ABS system of this car became unable to operate because of the plastic engine shields.
Plastic engine shields are not reliable and they can be removed quickly if the road conditions are not fine.
"Magnetics capture device" stop operating because of my mistake and car denied to start till the part changed.
General comments?
This car has excellent performance.
It is really quick. You can feel the affect of the torque that the engine produces.
I love the engine noise of this car, but on long journeys it can be disturbing.
Handling is good and it likes wet or rainy conditions.
However the quality of some plastic parts is poor and can create noises after a couple of 10000 km in bad road conditions.
