Yes, it's nothing too fancy or awesome, but I still like it.
I bought it about an year ago for a cheap but comfortable car to drive long distance trips, which are mostly between my home town and the city where I'm studying at university.
As I student I don't have that much extra money laying around, so I was not able to buy anything too new or expensive. This Megane does its job well anyway, it's good to drive and has a good ride quality, which I myself rank as important features for driving long trips. It had done 150000 kilometres before I bought it, but now it has about 20000 more on the clock.
It has one problem though, the speedometer doesn't work at the moment, thus I'm using the GPS navigator to show the speed. It's some sort of electric glitch, probably some wire from the speed sensor on the gearbox has corroded. I haven't yet had proper time to try to find the cause of the problem.
Oh, and it has 1,6 litre 8 valve 4 cylinder engine. It's not too powerful, but at least it gives a good fuel economy with the light car, which a broke studen't like me can appreciate.

The car's on backyard because I have just deployed some stone chip protection to the underbody.
