Hey everyone,
Has anyone ever had any experience with the diesel version of the RS Megane? Or know anyone who's had one/got one?
I ask because a new job for my girlfriend means a bit more of a daily commute... That doesn't mean the Clio will be going, just it needs a more mature brother for a 50-ish mile motorway commute.
We'd rather not stack miles nor pay the fuel every day in the Clio and I'm intrigued to stay with the family and have a look at the Megane 175 diesel. I do like the Megane 225, and came close to getting one, plus I haven't found many bad words as of yet with the usual internet searching. Only that its chain driven (not that that should make much difference).
They seem to have most of the pros of the petrol version but with a little bit more economy. I'm yet to properly crunch some numbers but any excessive miles can be claimed so it doesn't have to do a billion mpg, just more than the Clio gets!
I'd be eager to find one close by to have a look at if anyone knows of anyone down Bournemouth way, I'd appreciate that.
Cheers
James
