Mike Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 my dad's got a Renault Megane Scenic... it's a 1.5 diesel and does 600+ miles on a tank... quite big and comfy and amazingly nippy considering it's not a diesel turbo.. the only thing is it has automatic lights and windscreen wipers, which can be annoying... and the speedo is in the middle so everyone can see what your up to.... but other than that if we had a family I'd be probs getting one of those...

Plenty of room for the buggy though! Can't imagine the engine sizes would be much different from people carriers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
