2015 Renault Megane 1.5L Diesel · YR65 JPF

As a 1461cc diesel, this Megane is likely to offer decent fuel economy for motorway cruising, though real-world figures will depend on how much of the mileage is urban. Tax and insurance groups for this model are generally moderate, making it a typical choice for high-mileage commuters.

Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the age and mileage; while parts are widely available, components like dampers, bushes, and exhaust systems are more likely to require attention. Expect an estimated annual running cost in the region of £1,200-£1,500, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.

Pay close attention to the suspension and braking system. While the most recent MOTs for this specific vehicle recorded no defects, the aggregate data for this Renault Megane model shows common failures in coil springs and brake pipes.

Additionally, check the headlamps for clarity and functionality, as this is a frequent failure point across the wider model range. Given the 187,004 miles on the clock, listen for any unusual noises from the engine bay or drivetrain during a test drive, which could indicate wear in the turbo or gearbox.
