    Renault Megane RS dCi

    Renault has released a diesel-engined version of their hot hatchback, the Megane RS dCi. It has a 2-litre 4 cylinder diesel engine with 175bhp and 360Nm. Fuel consumption is apparently 6,5l/100km.

    That sure sounds sweet. Style, good chassis and a consumption compatible with everyday use.

    A great friend of mine had raced in the Clio Trophy when the first Clio came out, so he loves the Clio 16V and still has a pristine 1992 example. Since the early 90's he also always had many 1.9D 2 seater Clios which he loved for their reliability, low consumption and nice handling for the kind of car. Recently he got hands on a crashed Clio 16V and a well used 5 seater Clio 1.9D. The rest is predictable. Since he already had a 16V, he sold the 16V mechanics and mounted the 1.9D engine in the 16V body, making a road legal and sporty Clio diesel. The car now looks exactly like his real 16V, handles almost has good due to the 16V chassis and suspension, but is absurdly cheap to run and maintain.
    This new Megane had the same spirit but with todays refinment and technology. I would love to have one.
