Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 11 July 2011 12:00

Renault’s new Megane RS 265 Trophy recently smashed the Nurburgring lap record for front-wheel drive cars. But does that translate into more on-road fun? Read on for our first drive of the new Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy to find out... I didn’t even know there was a lap record for FWD cars. It’s a bit like hearing that Blackburn reserves beat ...

Renault Megane Renaultsport 250 (2010) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 20 June 2011 09:31

Another chance to drive the Renaultsport Megane - 20 June 2011 Jethro’s Megane 250 was in the office over the weekend before heading back to Renault HQ, so I was quick to snaffle the keys on Friday. It’s one of my favourite hot hatches on sale. Even now it’s accumulated 17,510 miles, his custard-yellow model feels as tight as new ...

Renault Megane 2.0 GT TCe 180 3dr (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 26 November 2010 09:24

This is the new Renault Megane GT. Think of it as an RS-lite. The chassis is still developed by Renaultsport but it’s tuned to be more relaxed than the full-on 250 and 250 Cup models. That anonymous Megane GT TCe 180 badge masks the fact that power still comes from a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder, but it’s optimised for torque rather than ...

Renaultsport Megane 250 Cup (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 21 October 2009 09:37

It’s been a big year for hot hatches, with the Golf GTI, Focus RS and Scirocco R fighting it out to name but three. Renault’s last-gen Megane R26R is still a match for them all despite its age, and now the French hot hatch expert is piling on the pressure with this, the all-new Megane 250. What are the headline ...

Renault Megane Sport Tourer 2.0 dCi 160 (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Stephen Worthy, 17 June 2009 15:00

For those drivers with 2.4 children and who refuse to be brow-beaten into buying an MPV, there remains the estate car. And while some people will see estates as about as cool as stonewashed jeans, companies like Renault and Vauxhall are pushing their new estates as ‘sport tourers’. But is the fifth model in the ever-expanding Renault Megane range good enough to ...

Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 TCe 180 (2008) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 03 November 2008 14:00

Though the front always struck me as a tad clunky and corporate, I’ve long admired the relentlessly shaken and gently stirring rump of this new Renault Megane’s predecessor. Trouble is, it seems that the majority of Britons, along with all too many Italians, have not… Why not? What's wrong with the Renault Megane? Renault makes no bones about the fact ...

Renaultsport Megane R26R (2008) CAR review and video

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 27 October 2008 11:00

Dreaming of a Porsche 911 GT3 RS but living with a hot hatch budget? Renault’s stripped-to-the-bones Megane R26R is the answer. Based on the acclaimed R26, the R version is the most extreme factory hatch since Renault’s own Clio V6. But instead of adding a big engine and more kilos, Renault has left the engine alone and cut out the ...

Renault Megane 1.5dCi (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Phil McNamara, 17 October 2008 14:53

Renault split opinion with the outgoing Megane 2. You know, that shakey-ass marketing. The distinctive, bustleback styling. A classic Marmite car, in fact. The sad thing is, the marketing suits have deemed such avantgarde design as verboten in the new, let's-appeal-to-everyone age. Hence the new, less risky Megane 3. Now we've driven it, we can finally announce if it's boring ...

Renault Megane Coupe Concept (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ged Maxwell, 31 March 2008 09:07

Even Renault people admit the current Megane is something of a Marmite car: you either love it or hate it. But that could be about to change as Renault reveals a replacement this autumn.  Where does the Coupe Concept fit into that plan? It gives an idea of what the current Megane’s successor will look like when a production version is unveiled ...

Renaultsport Megane 2.0 dCi 175 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Richard Aucock, 26 April 2007 01:34

Golf GT TDI, SEAT Leon FR TDI, Toyota Auris D-4D T180... there are a few diesel hot hatches around nowadays... Indeed, which is why the RenaultSport engineers built a concept fitted with the Nissan-Renault 175bhp 2.0-litre dCi engine - to convince management that they could join the party, too. Approval duly granted, they set about honing what's still a rarity; ...
