Summary
What does this car say about you?
Man who needs a family wagon.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Quite a good looking car for its type.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No, unfortunately its many good points are outweighed by the surprisingly expensive cost of fixing anything that goes wrong. For example, the electric hand brake was £450 just for the part, renault part only available. The mercedes ml that i owned previously was cheaper to maintain!
What are you likely to buy next?
Just bought a new kia sportage with a nice 7 year warranty; no more renaults i'm afraid.
