Renault Megane Hatchback (02-06) - Review

Review by Parkers on
The Megane looked pretty radical when it was first launched in 2002 and split opinion as to whether that was a good thing or a bad thing. It's available in a number of different bodystyles, and in an attempt to be all things to all men can be specified with a wide variety of engines and equipment levels. It excels in many areas, including safety and value, but a series of mechanical and electrical gremlins may make buyers think about another model.

Strong residuals, reputation for quality, comfortable on the move, neat design

SEAT Leon and Skoda Octavia do the same for less, not as good to drive as the Focus
