The RENAULT MEGANE (2002-09) 5DR SPORT TOURER 2.0 VVT PRIVILEGE is a petrol-powered, five-door estate version of Renault’s family-focused Megane. It offers more luggage space and everyday flexibility than the hatchback, while remaining easier to park and live with than a larger family car. In the UK used market, it sits among practical compact estates such as the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra. The 2.0-litre engine gives the Megane pace for joining fast roads and carrying passengers, though running costs may be higher than smaller-engined alternatives. The Sport Tourer suits families, commuters and anyone needing a roomy boot for shopping or holidays. Its comfortable, versatile character is the main appeal. mycarcheck.com has recorded three checks, covering three VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot rather than a reliability picture. The cars averaged 113,000 miles, about 3,000 miles a year, and nearly three previous keepers; average private-sale valuation was £400.
