Selling my Megane estate. Photos to follow, lovely mid blue colour Spent Β£300 on brakes about 2 weeks before the MOT. MOT was passed with 1 advisory, was told less than Β£100 job. I had a service done at MOT, so around Β£120 spent Then around 200 miles later I got a red engine warning No idea what it is, Car still starts like a dream but does misfire in certain rev ranges. May be an easy fix, maybe not I only got a new MOT to sell the car as I was getting a replacement. It is a nice looking car, with a couple of scuffs but these have been there since I bought it Big boot space and tow bar makes it ideal for families, handyman, etc Will take reasonable offer
