Renault Megane GT Line 2014 pictures

The model lineup has been simplified, with four trim levels and four bodystyles.

All versions are well equipped, with all but the base model featuring sat-nav, parking sensors and climate control.

GT-Line trim adds a sporty bodykit.

Boot space is a strong point, with 405 litres of space eclipsing the 380 offered by the VW Golf.

The Renault Megane's dials and switchgear were tidied up in the facelift and made less confusing.

The 1.2 TCe petrol unit is excellent - the 1.6 litre is old-fashioned and thirsty.

The interior design is still dated next to the class leaders.

Renaultsport models are insane, and fantastic for keen drivers.

Rear passenger space is mediocre at best, and rear occupants only get an open storage bin with no cupholders.

The Megane handles well, but isn't very comfortable.
