Hello, my name is Martin, I'm in my 50s and I've been driving for nearly 40 years.
In the past I've drove dozens of different cars vans sheds.
Last year i bought a 1.5 megane scenic sm52dbu, I bought this car because of fuel consumption and space.
I drive up to 1000 miles a week due to work, the car I had before was giving me about 30mpg petrol I'm now getting over 50mpg.
The space in the back with the seats removed is ample enough to get my fishing gear in and room for a bit more.
I've had some problems with the car but they have been solved via an excellent mechanic.
One slight niggle is it runs lumpy on low revs and it consumes a lot of oil.
What is best oil to use I've been putting in 5w/40 about a litre every fortnight, there's no smoke from exhaust.

Hello Martin and welcome alng :tu

I'm a big fan of the scenic, they're a superb motor.

Re: Oil, have a look in the Opie OIl sub forum as there is oil guides and if / when you order from Opie you'll get a MegII club discount ;)
