    You either love it or hate it. I loved it initially, but problems have lost that appeal.

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Initial problems with the alarm have been sorted.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Renault UK do seem to care and are responsive to criticism, but the dealers are just awful. Their attitude stinks, shame, because the car could be good, but i hate spending hours waiting around to be told to bring it back in a week or so.
