1994 Renault 19 DTi review from UK and Ireland
"Surprisingly nippy for a diesel"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear brake cylinders leaked at 61000 miles.
New alternator fitted at 75000 miles.
Brake compensator failed at 85000 miles.
General comments?
Very economical, I return around 58 miles per gallon regularly and have seen as much as 60 on occasion.
My wife suffers from back problems and the seats offer her very good support.
Always starts first time in the morning regardless of the weather and temperature.
