1998 Renault Scenic RT review from Sweden

Front fog light and heated drivers seat, loose wires. Fixed quickly by dealer.

Water in rear spoiler brake light. Dealer scratched spoiler paint during repair. DUUUH! Touch up paint on spoiler required.

Change both gas struts for tailgate, they don't hold it up any more.

A good looking and VERY practical car.

Superb around town, a piece of cake to park. Brilliant for trips to IKEA. Take out the middle rear seat, bolt a fork holder and a front wheel holder to the floor and you can transport a bicycle inside the car.

All the extra storage space means I don't have to have a mass of tools, umbrellas, washer fluid etc, filling up the boot.

Kids love it and have ordered me never to buy anything other than a Scenic.

The CD player's remote control is superb.

Twin sun roofs are great but cause a little bit more wind noise.

Fuel consumption is 0.87L per 100km around town.

0.73 L per 100km on long runs.

Improvements?

3" longer front seat cushions.

Washer jets on the wiper arms so that the water jet actually hits the windscreen at speeds over 60kmh.

Less wind noise.
