1996 Renault Megane Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"Pretty and fun, but has niggley faults that come and go, and not the most practical car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Key stopped working to unlock and disarm the immobiliser and alarm.
Occasional nonstarting with a complete loss of power.
Stalling at idle.
Tyres deflating for no reason.
General comments?
It's a very pretty car to look at fun to drive and comfortable for me. Not the most practical, especially if you want to carry passengers. The 2 litre 16 engine is quite pokey, and handling is quite good.
