Thats the 2006 Megan'e

Deeps · 30th April 2006, 15:22

Yeh, definitely the Megane. But is that a wreckage just in front of the Blue Megane? And the location definitely does not look like India.

Well the jesal has mentioned that he could'nt take pics.. thats why u guess he has tried to find something similar to it.

Am i right Jesal.?

One ugly car, the Renault Megane.

The Trafic panel van in the lower deck also seems to be damaged.

Two pristine-looking cars, one wreck, and one damaged van. Whats goin on over there?

jesal · 30th April 2006, 23:45

French cars are an acquired taste, I guess. I used to find the car unusual at first but have started liking it now - the new 2 litre Turbo Megane Sport looks particulary menacing with all those unusual design cues really standing out...

Just been vsiting a freidn with a Megane in Sngapore - stunning looking car but the 8 month old car keeps giving problems - engine check light comes on every 2 months

French electronics.....grrrr

I love all the French designs. French just rule at making quirky awesome stuff.

jkdas · 1st May 2006, 10:40

It's a Vel Satis - an oddball exec saloon, not done very well in the market. Must be a hand me down given to the Mahindra's

islero · 19th June 2006, 21:37

Wow, I would have liked to see one of those!! Actually I would have preferred to see the Avantime, its even crazier!!

The Vel Satis is surprisingly luxurious, but when it comes to the looks department, it's absolutely like Marmite. Incredibly hate-it-or-love-it.
