February 2007

Did you get a good deal and why?

For what I was buying, yes It would of been a good deal.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Needed a diesel, cheap to run & I can obtain parts and servicing at a discount where Renaults are concerned.

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful, answered all my Q's but when it came to collecting the car, the dealer had misled me including misinforming me about the history of the vehicle in question!!!! This dealer in my opinion did not prepare the car to the agreement made at the time of sale. When collecting the car found damage which had not been there originally & several new faults. Also the car was not clean externally when collecting it. Bought from Wilson's in Epsom-Surrey.

What's it like to drive?

Nice ride.

What's it like to park?

Quite easy.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Yes, drivers seat not functioning correctly/wheels not balanced/drivers door handle internally broken off/lumber support defective/ a/c needed de-bugging/cruise control not working/squeeky clutch paddle/broken front wiper blade & general rattles within the cabin. Within 2 months the car went back 3 times for the same problems/faults. On the last occasion when collecting my vehicle from the dealer in question the vehicle had been returned to me with damage to the rear wheel arch.

What's most practical about your car?

Very economical to drive.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Xenon headlights come on automatically.
