2000 Renault Megane classic privelege review from UK and Ireland

"I would never buy a Renault, this is a company car and I have seen enough to put me off forever"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Rubber Seal coming away from windscreen.

Gearstick moves backward and forward when pressing or releasing accelerator.

CD multi changer not working.

Windscreen washer jets not operating correctly.

General comments?

This car is very fast and has great acceleration, unfortunately the chassis is not built to cope with the engine power.

The handling is appalling and the car wallows on all but the most gentle of corners.

The engine noise at 70mph is totally unacceptable for a car of this size and is very intrusive.

The throw of the gearstick is way too long and forbids any sort of enthusiastic gear changing. In addition the whole box moves when you press or release the gas. Quite unnerving.

The design of the exterior of the car is average, but the interior is really an exercise in mismatched design. An abundance of shapes which leaves the impression of the square peg in the round hole, i. e it really doesn't fit.

I have taken the car to 3 Renault dealers all of which demonstrated terrible customer service. The third was the most helpful and was convenient for my place of work, but still managed to return the car having not completed the work I requested to any decent standard.
