1992 Renault Savanna GTD review from UK and Ireland
"Spacious seven seater"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fuel tank straps corroded, parts can only be purchased through the dealer.
Front brake disc's worn unevenly so these had to be replaced along with the pads, quite expensive at £190.
Both rear brakes cylinders sprung leaks.
Head gasket blew, which was rather expensive to fix, as the head is an alloy it had to be sent of to be skimmed.
Electrics on the tail gate has problems, which is proving difficult to locate the fault.
The reverse gear selector cable snapped, although it is just a steel wire I had to buy the complete gear shaft, again available from the dealer only!
The headlight adjuster has jammed.
General comments?
This car has very soft suspension and tends to "bounce" a little bit.
For a seven seater car it has a good sized boot.
Very reliable even though a lot of parts needed replacing. Previous owners neglected the vehicle!
Good on fuel, 140 miles on £10 of fuel.
