1997 Renault Megane Paris review from UK and Ireland
"Reliable workhorse that will go on forever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very few things, the rear lights where ghosting (15 quid to sort),heater matrix went last year, this isn't a problem, doesn't effect the running of the car at all! That's pretty much it.
General comments?
I've done nearly 100K miles in it now and it's still going strong (touch wood).
I'm 6'2 and I'm perfectly comfortable sitting in the front or the back.
Granted, its not the quickest car in the world, but when I bought this car I was just looking for a reliable workhorse, and that's what I got!
I've been on several very long journeys from Edinburgh to Devon a few times and its always got me there no problem with great fuel economy.
