    Quite good value - until you see the final settlement if you have taken out the selections option through a Renault dealer!

    Not too bad, but owned a 106 before this one and the Clio is not as economical by far!

    Comfy drive and quite nippy if you keep it in your gears long enough.

    As above comment.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    I have had this car for almost a year and the airbag light is constantly on (which I have been advised by Renault this is because I keep moving the seat forward and backwards - 3dr car?)

    Top marks for this. Looks nice inside and out and quite sporty for a 1.2.

    Comfort

    1 out of 5 1.0

    I'm only small, so for me there's plenty of room but if I have backseat passengers their heads are almost touching the ceiling.

    If the airbag worked, I'm sure it would be really good.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    My gearbox fell out after only having the car for 2 months to which they tried laying the blame on me at first until eventually admitting a bolt was loose!
