Renault does not have a great reputation for reliability. A friend has a Megane coupe convertible and is desperate to get rid of it. Currently it won't start and he has been waiting weeks for a replacement key card to be sent from France so he can use his car again.I really really like the look and spec of the Megane Coupe but a mechanic has told me they are not good cars, anyone know different?? on the time4leasing site they have a fantastic deal for the megane coupe! Also fancy the new Audi A1 anyone got experience with this one??

Check the link I thought the price was very reasonable! But they have not got back to me yet so it will probably double in price :rotfl:0 -
