2000 Renault Espace RXDT review from UK and Ireland
"A total and utter disaster"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Master cylinder went after 4 weeks of ownership. Both rear wheel bearings needed replacing at the same time. Tyre wear is unbelievable. Had to replace all four tyres for the first mot. Serious water leak ruined carpets and under seat stereo. Central locking failed. Imobiliser failed. Steering failed. Near side suspension spring snapped.
General comments?
This car is seriously sluggish. No power from the turbo and not as economical as it should be. The staff I spoke to at the main dealers were very unhelpful.
