One way to feel the wind in your hair

The new Renault Wind Roadster.

THE star of the silver screen, the new Renault Wind Roadster, is now available to order from Harwoods Renault, as well as the stunning New Megane Coupe-Cabriolet.

The Megane Coupe-Cabriolet and the Wind Roadster combine the excitement of open-top motoring with driveability and practicality.

The Megane Coupe-Cabriolet has always been a firm favourite of open-top driving fans on the Island and its new incarnation provides more thrills thanks to its striking lines and generous equipment levels. Touches of luxury come from a number of gloss black and satin-finish chrome exterior features, with an electric, panoramic, folding glass roof as standard, giving the feeling of freedom whether the top is up or down.

Top-down motoring has added enjoyment thanks to the improved forward position of its windscreen and a fixed glass wind deflector sited behind the rear headrests. The Megane Coupe-Cabriolet provides solid handling thanks to an uprated chassis and new electric power steering, a broad choice of efficient powertrains, including the all-new, six-speed automatic dual clutch transmission, which optimises comfort and minimises fuel consumption.

Paul Hunt, sales director at Harwoods Renault, said: "We Brits love our convertibles and top the charts in Europe for sales, despite our unpredictable weather. If the weather does take a turn for the worse, the top goes up at the touch of a button. The only problem now is deciding whether to go for the Wind Roadster or the Megane Coupe-Cabriolet."

The Megane Coupe-Cabriolet is just one of the exciting new models to appear in the Megane range coming to Harwoods.

Two versions are available of the Megane Hatch, Coupe, Sport Tourer and Coupe-Cabriolet models, offering a flavour of the Renaultsport range. The packages offer sports chassis settings, restyled bumpers, 17ins Celsium aluminium alloy wheels (GT Line) or 18ins Jetow wheels (GT), Megane Renaultsport 250-specification sports seats, aluminium pedal set and dark charcoal interior theme with polished carbon highlights and special badging on the grille and tailgate.

The GT version is available with the two-litre TCe 180 petrol engine or the powerful, high-torque two-litre dCi 160 diesel powerplant.
