1994 Renault Espace RT review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust rear box replaced at 12k service (dealer recall?).
One of the radiator fans stopped working (replaced at 36k service).
General comments?
This was a company car I had from new to 3yrs / 48k miles. Economical (ave 28mpg); very comfortable and very versatile. Reliability was fine on mine, though some colleagues experienced more problems than I did (electrical and gearbox). Acceleration was adequate, but the surprising thing was that it didn't suffer much by being fully loaded (5 adults + 2 kids). A good cruiser, reasonably quiet and totally rattle free. Loved it!
