Mega Club Overview: Generations, Specs and Which One to Buy
Overview of the Mega Club cabrio (1992–1999): its single generation, 52–75 hp engine range, manual gearboxes, FWD and 4x4 versions, and which modification to choose.
The Mega Club is a cabrio produced from 1992 to 1999 with engine outputs ranging from 52 to 75 hp. All versions come with a manual gearbox, and the lineup includes both front-wheel-drive and 4x4 variants. It suits drivers looking for a compact open-top car from the 1990s with simple mechanicals and modest power, including those who want the rarity of a small cabrio with all-wheel drive.
Mega Club generations
1 generation (1992–1999)
The first and only generation of the Mega Club was built from 1992 to 1999 exclusively as a cabrio. Power outputs span 52 to 75 hp across 4 modifications, all paired with a manual gearbox. The drivetrain choice is unusual for the class: the Mega Club was offered with both front-wheel drive and 4x4. The Mega Club 1.5 MT (1 generation) is the mass-market version, running a 1527 cc diesel engine with 57 hp and 4x4 drive. At the top of the range sits the Mega Club 1.4 MT (75 hp, 1 generation), which uses a 1361 cc engine producing 75 hp and drives the front wheels.
Which Mega Club to buy
- 1.5 MT (1 generation): the mass-market choice, with a 1527 cc diesel producing 57 hp and 4x4 drive — the most common configuration to find and support with parts.
- 1.4 MT (75 hp) (1 generation): the most powerful Mega Club at 75 hp from a 1361 cc engine, front-wheel drive, for those who want the strongest performance in the range.
When buying used, every Mega Club on the market dates from 1992–1999, so age is a constant across the range rather than a differentiator. With only one generation and 4 modifications, all with manual gearboxes, the choice comes down to engine and drivetrain rather than model year: pick the 4x4 diesel 1.5 MT for the mass-market configuration or the 75 hp 1.4 MT for maximum power.
Summary
The Mega Club occupies a narrow niche: a 1990s cabrio with 52–75 hp, manual-only transmissions and a choice between FWD and 4x4. The Mega Club 1.5 MT (1 generation) offers a 57 hp diesel with 4x4, while the Mega Club 1.4 MT (1 generation) leads the range with 75 hp. With 4 modifications in a single generation spanning 1992–1999, the lineup is easy to navigate, and the two versions above cover the practical extremes of the range.
