Does anyone drive the glass-topped Renault MeganeCC that THE ROOF DOES NOT LEAK? My 4 year old beautiful sexy Renault MeganeCC leaks from somewhere where the door-seals and the doors meet. The problem became evident soon after purchase, and I read a lot of reviews, most of which complained about the roof leaking. For those of you who would like to answer this question and do not know this model - it is not the one with the soft top. The glass roof folds into the boot. It would be interesting to know just how many of these models are being used that dont have leaking roofs. Thank you.

Do you think that Renault could get back into the American market with a new caravelle? They could make a 4 cylinder 1.3 litre engine by copying the head of their F1 engine. They did win the world constructors championship, they should be selling a car that has some similarity to their race car. They mount this transversly, AHEAD of the rear wheels to improve handling. Then they use a ZF transaxle and Bosch fuel injection and ignition to improve reliability. With their reputation they can't sell it with the Renault name here, but it could be sold in lincoln mercury dealers as a seperate marque, like they did with the Pantera.
