Renault Megane Cabriolet (06-09) - Review

Review by Ben Wall on

The convertible Megane has a folding metal and glass roof. Although similar in appearance to the 2003 model, cars from 2006 received a facelift. It consisted of a very light restyling to the front and rear, a bit more power for some of the engines and a few other tweaks. None of which diminished the Coupe-Cabriolet's ability or good all round comfort. It's an ideal summer-time cruiser, looks good with the roof down and is easy to drive. It's one of the older designs for this size of car, although the more costly VW Eos is the only direct rival to also offer a glass roof section.

Buying used

A used example is tempting as the savings are considerable although check that the roof hasn't been leaking and resulted in any staining to the upholstery or carpets.

Selling

It should sell easily and the hard roof means there's less seasonal variation in demand than is normally the case with convertibles which tend not to sell so well during autumn and winter. The increasing number of cars with hard-top convertible roofs means its less unique than it was but it should still be desirable.
