Renault 19 Hatchback 16 Valve 3d (1991/J) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Good value, seats tend to wear on the sides and engine needs to be maintained for top performance
Costs
Parts are expensive, but so what!! You pay for what you get, don't get 2nd hand parts as they can be just as bad as the ones that are gone!

On the road
Driving
Comfortable with the bucket seats

Excellent, decat and get a stright through, watch for timing belt and also head gasket failures

Living with it
Reliability
Good, watch for engine faults and weak starter motor
Image
A must for supping up, lower suspension and elastic band tyres are just some of things you can do to make this car look cool
Comfort
Brilliant, bucket seats hold whilst cornering, gears could do to be closer together for maximum performance
