1991 Renault 21 TXE review from Australia and New Zealand
"A good medium sized car with large car comfort"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning needs to be re-gassed, since 125000 km approx.
One of the door locks doesn't always work for central locking.
Remote central locking key broken.
Front door linings starting to wear through.
Full-beam switch failed about 95000km.
One of the rear electric windows slow to go up.
General comments?
This has been a great car and I thoroughly enjoy driving it.
Has had all the regular services and has never missed a beat.
Comfortable to travel long distance and quick off the mark in city driving.
It is a shame that it is starting to age a bit, starting to show signs of wear.
A bit hungry around town (auto), but economical on the open road, under 8l/100km.
