1999 Renault Megane RXE review from Venezuela
"A great 4 door cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing.
I put a 7 in dealer service because they keep the car one whole day and sometimes two days to do an oil change and brake inspection.
Oil changes every 5000 kms in the dealer to keep the warranty.
General comments?
The car is perfect, everything is like new, I was afraid of buying a Renault but now I can see that they have worked hard on reliability items.
The engine is great, uses no oil, fuel consumption according to the dash screen is 9.4 lts/100 kms.
The A/C and heating works well even on really sunny days.
I've got the top of the line (RXE) with all electrics and I put a sunroof and a spoiler, it looks great.
The trunk is big, even bigger than my last Cavalier (which was a piece of crap).
The sound system is average.
It's the most silent car I've ever had.
