The Renault Megane CC (Coupe Cabriolet) offered open-top motoring with a touch of French flair. While not as common as some roadsters, it provides an alternative for those seeking a stylish convertible. However, potential buyers in New Zealand should be aware of some specific considerations.
Common issues specific to the CC model include problems with the roof mechanism, such as slow operation, leaks, or complete failure. Electrical faults relating to the roof and windows are possible too. The same coil pack and EDC transmission issues as with other Megane models can occur.
WOF tips
Ensure all lights are functioning correctly, including the high-mount brake light. Tyre condition is important, as uneven wear can indicate alignment problems. The operation of the roof must be smooth and reliable. Check the windscreen carefully for chips or cracks, as these can be more susceptible to spreading in a convertible.
