Looking at a medium sized estate.
Have narrowed it down to the 3 above in 1.6 dsl.
Any obvious preference?
Need a big boot....reliability and air con!

Don't know about the others, but the Megane Estate has a pretty good boot and the current generation are pretty reliable, there's no broad issues with the range.

Drove a rented Ceed estate while abroad recently and was quite impressed with it. Apparently they are pretty reliable too. I've heard the Gardaí aren't impressed with the i30 in terms of reliability. Can't comment on the megane.

How new are you looking. Def 1.6 and not 1.5 on the Megane?

Circa 2010-11 1.5 dci in the megane 1.6 in the others. Just need a not do big car with a big enough boot.

I’d nearly go the Megane. It’s just that bit more comfortable.

That shape Mégane estate are very comfortable was looking at buying a 12 last year and was really impressed the one I drove was the GT line spec.

That's great value for money to be fair ,looks good mileage is normal as well.
Not sure though on image11 does the front bumper look a different shade to the bonnet now it could be the lights or I'm on mobile as well could be that.

From what year did the Megane become more reliable. Would this be the same for all Renaults.

As a general rule anything from 07/08 onwards is decent enough
