Remember Renault's funny commercial from last year where F1 ace Kimi Raikkonen drove a Megane 1700 kilometers for no good reason? Well now, the car is back with another cool ad, this time focusing on a young couple.
The ad for the "New Megane" is called Catch me if you can and features a woman who in quarelling with her guy decides to run off in the long-range Renault. He chases her in a taxi which soon runs out of few, followed by other vehicles that simply can't do the automotive marathon.
From a driving range point of view, the Megane has not changed. It's still got the same 1700-kilometer potential as it did when Kimi drove it. However, for 2014, a new front end has been added to the car for a more modern look.
Will the nosejob and a promise of longevity be enough to convince you to buy the Megane? Probably, but there's something that's just wrong with a girlfriend that does what this girl did.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
