Matts new daily.. Renault content! - Matt-Rallye - 25-02-2015 Decided i wanted a nice car for daily running rather than a rattly old peugeot, call me old but meh. Been looking at various cars for a while and finally decided on a renaultsport megane 175dci having previously had a 225 i knew what to expect. Went all the way to essex (240miles from mine) to get the exact one i wanted and besides the wheels being 'kerbed' according the dealer and actually being 'trashed' according to me (for which i had a fair whack of money knocked off) it was as described, drives beautifully and most importantly it has 12months warranty. Please do not think for a moment it is replacing the rallye, thats staying right where it belongs, with me ![]() Anyways piccies: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I know its not to everyones taste but like hell was i buying anything VAG! ![]() RE: Matts new daily..

The interior mainly. Think they look pretty good from outside but unfortunately you have to sit inside to drive one. ![]() RE: Matts new daily..

Interior just seems functional and user friendly too me, minimal buttons and a far less cluttered steering wheel than vauxhalls and fords.

I really dont understand you at all!? messaged me on facebook asking if i had crashed it and that they dont handle cos your mate had a 1.5 dci yet you want to own one... Also i suggest you look up the renaultsport suspension spec for this with the extra cup chassis which mine has. RE: Matts new daily..

Seem to get alot for your money with these! Always cheaper than all the other 225 cars in that "area". RE: Matts new daily..

The 175's hold alot more value in megane terms, the equivalent petrol 225 (same age / spec) is around £1500 cheaper! can pick up an early 225 for well under 2k now!

More than the rallye, thats the main thing ![]() my daily commute is mostly twisting back & B roads so MPG is comprimised but still seeing an average 46mpg on a daily basis. was hitting over 50mpg on motorway when i picked it up, Bear in mind its a ton & half of car with 18" wheels and 175bhp. I think the MPG is pretty damn good! RE: Matts new daily.. Renault content! - Pebbles167 - 27-02-2015 How does this compare with the 225? With prices coming down for both, it makes a real buying prospect! RE: Matts new daily..
