2000 Renault Megane RTA review from Romania
"A good solid, reliable car, but not so well made and certainly not sporty at all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A few times it didn't start from the first attempt.
General comments?
The car is very reliable.
The ride is very comfortable, but it doesn't handle at all well on curves.
The acceleration is above average and not what I would expect from a 1.6 engine (I have the 8v, 90hp version)
Fuel consumption is excellent.
Build quality is poor, the fittings are quite bad, and it doesn't seem they would last well in time.
Spacious car, good accommodation for 5 adults, huge boot, I could never fill it.
Very low running costs, I only put gas and oil in it, the car is very reliable.
