1996 Renault Espace Alise review from UK and Ireland
"An extremely comfortable and reliable vehicle that I have enjoyed owning"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Driver's side electric window failed at 125,000 miles.
Radiator burst at 129,000 miles.
One driveshaft replaced at 75,000 miles.
General comments?
This car is so reliable as to be almost unbelievable.
It has handled well from day 1 and after 140,000 miles the engine still runs sweetly.
I am still using the original engine, clutch and gearbox.
The suspension is beginning to feel tired and has just started to knock a bit.
