Our new renault
« on: 22 September 2010, 20:14:40 »

We have had the car nearly two weeks now. During this time, it has hardly broken down or fallen to bits at all. So up yours, knowalls. :-?

And in that time it has covered a whole 200 yards, using just 42 litres of fuel.

I hate to not agree, but someone I know had a then brand new Renault trafic van, on a 55 plate, it went through 3 gearboxes and a clutch in 15,000 miles, if that's not failing quickly I don't know what is  :o

It just doesn't seem 'sturdy' enough to me. I'm frightened of breaking anything. It's got too many, unnecessary toys fitted as standard. But I've had vauxhalls for the last 9-10 years, I guess I just expect everything to be where I'm used to it being.

The wife adores it, so.......

they are also producing meganes here..

they are #1 in sales, although parts are quite expensive (and be aware that toyota and honda has factories here and sell at the similiar prices)  Also even their ancestors rarely fail except electrics..

You'll have to let us know when it does fall apart - we'd all be very interested, I'm sure.
