Renault Scenic 1.9 dCi Dynamique 5d (2001/Y) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Good for what you get on the car - part leather, climate control and all that.
Costs
Good economy from the motor, servicing best from Renault independents - or shop around from dealership to dealership, they vary quite a bit.
-
On the road
Driving
Nice position, good all round vision, cabin a little cramped compared to competitors.
Performance
Poor pull at low speeds - can't take any risks pulling out, power just isn't there! OK at medium and great at high motorway runs.
-
Living with it
Reliability
OK. Starts when it needs to and runs well. No problems encountered as yet.
Image
OK. If I wanted a looker I'd have gone for a flash car (but with 3 kids a 2 seater isn't going to do the business! Maybe later....) Not too bad.
Comfort
Good lumbar support and nice firm seats, Back seats cramped and NOT really suitable for 3 adults or 3 kids in comfort. The middle seat is 3/4 size and its a tussle every time I put my daughter in the middle.

Security and Service
Security
Locking and etching good - but who would want to nick it for a joyride?
Service
Done what I asked. No better or worse than others. Would ring around from one to another though as servicing and accessory costs vary quite a bit.
