An almost unusable 2011 Mégane

This Renault Megane RS from 2011 was offered for a pittance because it was really unsanitary. The rear seat was torn out and a number of repairs had to be considered. Internet users have also been very critical of this car:
“Can we keep the stickers and the flashing light? » or “Even free I wouldn’t want it”… And you ? Could you imagine yourself with this vehicle in your garage? It is true that, for some, driving a Gendarmerie car is a dream. Beyond the mechanical side, the bodywork is atypical and the car can be displayed or used to show off.

A good deal ?

The auction lasted from August 31 to September 5. In the end, the Mégane RS which belonged to the gendarmes found a buyer for €11,800. If you do the math, it’s 17 times the starting price asked. In general, other Renault models are offered for sale in an unsanitary condition (Kangoo, Partner, Megane Estate de la Gendarmerie, etc.). The one that was sold this time has 313,000 kilometers on the odometer. Its new owner must change the clutch, turbo, fuel pump and taillights of the Renault for it to work properly. Not counting the distribution problemTHE hail impacts on the roof and windshield.

Yes, that’s starting to do a lot for a car that was supposed to sell for next to nothing at the start. The identity of the buyer has not been revealed but it is believed to be an automotive professional. We therefore suspect that he knows what he bought and what will have to be done to put this Mégane RS back in working order.
