I disagree. I think the current crop from Renault are really good.
The Renault 5, Renault 4 and Renault Megan are class leading and have some style about them.
I just wish they came with better privacy controls but then all the car manufactures are operating a cartel when it comes to surveillance.
Also the Scenic, a slightly larger Megane.
Yes, I definitely agree. The Scenic is probably the one I'd get given the choice. I've driven one and liked it a lot. Good range, easy to handle and very comfortable IMHO.
