The RENAULT MEGANE (2002-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 VVT OASIS REV 06 is a practical, petrol-powered family hatchback, aimed at buyers wanting more space than a small city car without moving to a larger estate or SUV. Its five doors make access easy, while the Oasis edition gives this everyday Megane a straightforward, comfortable feel. The 1.6-litre VVT engine suits commuting, school runs and regular local journeys, with useful flexibility for occasional longer trips. It is best suited to singles, couples and small families seeking an affordable used car; against popular rivals such as the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra, the Megane offers a distinctive French design and sensible all-round hatchback practicality.
