1997 Renault Megane Classic RXE review from UK and Ireland
"A mechanical disaster!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine blew up at 90000 miles.
Air conditioning unit gone faulty.
Radiator sprung a leak.
Immobiliser out of sync.
Heater plugs burnt out twice.
ABS dash light comes on intermittently.
Exhaust needs to be changed, but the cat is integral!
General comments?
This car has been a total disaster since I bought it (see above)
Apart from all the faults the fuel consumption is excellent.
Good size and equipment for a family car.
Low insurance group.
