Practical and tight fisted on petrol.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
It's for a girl really.

No, due entirely to such a sub standard gear box and the non existent customer service from Renault, 3 year warranty...doesn't mean a thing to Renault.

Anything with a functional gear box and probably not a Renault despite having previous Renault car. Well done for alienating me Renault!
