1994 Renault Espace Alize review from UK and Ireland
"Extremely reliable and adaptable family car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator failed at 75,000m.
Cassette/radio failed - replaced with a new Sony CD/radio for £100.
New exhaust at 80,000m.
General comments?
Extremely reliable and adaptable family car, that has never failed to start, never broken down and takes us to France every year without a problem.
Changed cam-belt at 45,000m and change oil and filters every 5,000m. Still runs like new and is still on the original clutch, battery, engine, gearbox, disks etc..
However, when fully loaded with 7 people the car could do with more power, particularly when the A/C is on, which seems to sap a lot of power.
A fair bit of body roll in corners, but not uncomfortable.
