Title: SWMBO'S New Car
Post by: Big Fra on 28 February 2009, 15:09:43

Well, after much hassle from the insurance company, we have bought this.

54 Megane Dynamique 1.5 Dci.
Its not too bad, a little sluggish for my liking, but at motorway speeds its pretty good, but the 2 best things are, easy 60mpg and £35 RFL.

Taken some piccies from autotrader, but the colour/model etc is identical.

The hole is there, but offset by the fuel consumption.

1.2 ibiza was costing her 10-15 bucks per week in fuel.
The megane cost a fiver for the first week!

£50 to fill the tank and the computer gave a range of over 750 miles!

Wish my mig would have done that.

Oh yeah, and we did get a really good deal. One of those ones where we had to get it in writing to make sure they wouldn't back out of it.

Being an ex-car salesman comes in handy from time to time. :y

hope they have improved the build since the early ones of that shape, my old boss had one, bits kept falling off, dash parts rattled like mad his was less than a year old.
